History

Started in 1936 through Christian businessman, Francis Grim while visiting his elderly father in hospital. He saw that physical needs of patients were met,
but spiritual needs largely ignored.

Burdened about this need, he begin to
teach a small group of nurses how to
care spiritually for the sick.

From this grew a world-wide movement
in more than 100 nations.

HCF Singapore was born in 1985.
The work grew little by little
through a group of committed
Christians in healthcare.
