    Graduates in Private Practice

    Of the graduates who are engaged in private practice, many are just as truly entitled to be called medical evangelists as are their fellow physicians abroad. During their training they participated in unselfish ministry to the needy and in public evangelism in churches or halls, and that spirit lives on in their hearts. By active service and liberal financial assistance they strengthen the churches.SHM 412.3

    Years ago there was set before the founders of the medical school at Loma Linda the purpose for which it was established. It was pointed out that many workers were to be trained there, qualified with the ability of physicians, whose ambition should be to labor not so much “in professional lines as physicians, but as medical missionary evangelists.” The need for “hundreds of workers who have received a practical and thorough education in medical lines” was pointed out. They were to “come out of the school without having sacrificed the principles of health reform or their love for God and righteousness.” Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students, 471.SHM 413.1

    It would be too much to expect that every student or graduate would reach this ideal. But it is gratifying to know that thousands of those who have passed through the halls of Loma Linda University are endeavoring to hold to the high standards set before them.SHM 413.2
