Who We Are
Global Mission Partners (GMP) is a 501-(c)-3 Oklahoma Not-for-Profit Charitable Corporation which provides opportunities for short-term medical missions and global missions opportunities, as well as evangelism and construction missions, to serve persons who have little or no access to health care and adequate housing. Since February 1999, GMP mission teams have partnered with other global mission organizations to lead hundreds of volunteers internationally to provide medical, surgical and dental services and health education for over ~36,500 patients. GMP has performed over 500 surgeries and celebrated over 5,000 first time commitments of faith. Teams have served in Nepal, India, Ecuador, Kenya, Mexico, Haiti and Russia. Donations of medicines and supplies have exceeded $2.85 Million dollars. | | The medical missions and global missions not only change the lives of the patients, but also impact the lives of those who serve. Medical missions need the participation of physicians, dentists, surgeons, nurses, therapists, general helpers, pastors, university or medical students and resident physicians. Early application is very important as global missions projects require significant advanced planning. GMP was founded and is led by Dr. Bryan L. Frank, a Natural Sports & Pain Medicine/Medical Acupuncture/Integrative Anti-Aging Medicine specialist. Dr. Frank has directed or participated in approximately 120 medical missions and global missions to redeveloping areas in the US and abroad during the last 30 years. Internationally, he has served in Nepal, India, Kenya, Ecuador, Mexico, Costa Rica, Russia, Haiti and the Dominican Republic. | | | Beyond the medical missions, GMP has led and supported home-building global missions in Mexico and provided scholarships, registrations, and other support for students and adults. These projects are coordinated with Proyecto Abrigo, well-established home-building ministry that has provided thousands of homes to poor families living on the border in the Tijuana, Ciudad Juarez, and Cancun regions. This work has been accomplished through over 20,000 participants from all across North America.
In his "regular" professional life, Dr. Frank is Natural Sports & Pain Medicine/Medical Acupuncture/ Integrative Anti-Aging Medicine specialist physician who is a widely recognized teacher at national and international medical acupuncture and pain medicine symposia, including Japan, China, Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Holland, England, Scotland, Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Czech Republic, Denmark, Greece, Spain, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Mexico and Canada. He has served as | | | President (1999-2001) of the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture (AAMA) and as President (2004-2006) and Vice-President (2010-2012) of the International Council of Medical Acupuncture and Related Techniques (ICMART). He has been a Senior Instructor for the UCLA Medical School's Medical Acupuncture for Physicians Program for eight years and has taught for the University of Miami School of Medicine Medical Acupuncture Program and McMaster University School of Medicine in Hamilton, Ontario, and at the Harvard Medical School Acupuncture program. He has extensive experience in Wilderness and Travel Medicine, which serves well in the international medical mission arena, and has authored or co-authored numerous medical articles, chapters, texts, and atlases. | | | Dr. Frank is an ordained Pastor in Oklahoma City, OK. He leads Global Missions and Healing Ministries and is highly regarded for both his teaching and ministry activities. All missions encompass evangelism as well as service. All medical services are offered regardless of faith commitment or beliefs. Volunteers have served with Dr. Frank from many faith backgrounds.
Global Healing Partners is the evangelical and teaching ministry of GMP. Dr. Frank is available for teaching, preaching and workshops for leading people into their full inheritance as children of God, with salvation that is real and commanding today as well as to come. Healing of the body, emotions and spirit are God's desire for all mankind and has been given to us through the suffering and death of Jesus Christ. He conquered suffering and death and rose victorious over Satan and calls His sons and daughters today to claim their gifts and to war against the enemy for their full birthright. | | | "For...
