Rush Christian Medical Association
Welcome to the Rush CMA Website!
Strengthening and encouraging one another - Acts 14:22
Welcome to the Rush CMA homepage! We are an informal, multi-denominational network of Christian medical and allied healthcare students at Rush University who seek to live out our faith in our professions. We join together for bible study and worship. We help students connect with local churches and fellowships. We invite local clinicians to speak about their faith and medical practice. We also join Christian students from other Chicago medical schools in celebrating Thanksgiving and participating in CMDA health fairs held throughout the year. Learn more on this website!

The old site can still be accessed here. On the old site, we had a "Prayer Column" where people contributed encouraging Christian quotes and scriptural verses. Here is what was contributed this year, 2007:
“I often make the mistake of seeing people (and their interruptions) as the problem with my job. Dr. Jesus never forgot that people and their concerns were the purpose of his life.”—Dr. David Stevens in Jesus M.D. Read More »
