Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. -Margaret Mead
This is one of my favorite quotes and one we have up in our office at Mission Doctors. Often times the news from around the world can be overwhelming. Stories about unstable political situations, the spread of HIV/AIDS and the treatment of women around world can leave even the most experience nonprofit employee feeling exhausted.

Fortunately, for us here at Mission Doctors we work with one of these small group of thoughtful, committed citizens our Mission Doctors Auxiliary and Friends of Mission Doctors in Wisconsin. We could not do our work without these dedicated men and women.
We are currently working on our next local, Los Angeles area Mission Doctors Auxiliary roster. If you are interested in learning more about the Mission Doctors Auxiliary and would like to receive invites to great events in the area, drop us a line at the office. If you don't live in the Los Angeles or Wisconsin areas, check out website about starting your own Friends of Mission Doctors.
Without the help of this small group of thoughtful, committed citizens we could not do our work. Please join us.
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." This quote from Margaret Mead has always been one of my favorites and for years has spurred me on during late nights and long flights with Mission Doctors. We are still working on wrapping up all of the details following our
annual weekend Retreat/Seminar a couple weeks ago. This gave us the opportunity to bring together a group of dedicated mission doctors and their spouses and with those interested in learning about ways they can serve. As I looked over the room I knew this was indeed a group like the "small group of thoughtful, committed citizens" Margaret Mead described.
I again want to take a moment on this blog to thank all of those generous and committed missionaries and thoughtful participants for spending the weekend working to be the change in the world.
Thank you.P.S. - Interested in attending this event in 2011? We are already accepting reservations - Loyola Marymount University - April 8 - 10, 2011!
