Our Statement of Faith

As an Anabaptist medical sharing group, we share these commonly held beliefs:

  • We believe in and practice the 1 Corinthians 11 teaching on the headship veiling as well as modesty in dress. It is required for AHS membership that ladies wear the veiling and skirts consistently on a daily basis.

  • We believe in the Anabaptist practice of nonresistance as a way of life. This is expressed by not taking up arms, by not initiating lawsuits, and by not engaging in retaliation of any kind (Matthew 5:39).

  • We believe in the biblical principle of sharing with those who experience medical needs (Galatians 6:2).

  • We believe in the sanctity and dignity of human life, and that God created every life for a special meaning and purpose (Psalms 139:13-14).

  • We believe that our bodies are the temples of the Holy Ghost, and that it is our responsibility to God and our fellow members to exemplify Christ in every aspect of life, including choices and habits that affect our health, and to avoid habits and behaviors that are harmful to the body (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

  • We believe in the power of prayer and that prayer should be a conviction and faithful practice of our daily lives (1 John 5:14).

  • We believe in a God who cares for his people through sickness and health. He is the Great Physician and the Provider of all our needs. He is Joy in sorrow, a Comfort in pain, and our ever-present Help in times of trouble (1 Peter 5:7).
