"Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers……Freely you have received, freely give.”
(Matthew 10:8)

Christian Hospital Chandraghona is built on the strong foundations of the Christian Church and the teachings of Jesus Christ. From its creation in 1907 by Dr Taylor, a missionary of the Baptist Missionary Society, through more than 100 years of healing and caring in the name of Our Lord, to its current place as one of the major institutions within the Bangladesh Baptist Sangha, CHC has endeavored to deliver health care and support not only to the bodies but to the souls of the people it serves.

There are currently 2 places of worship at CHC – Chandraghona Church which is situated just behind the hospital and is attended by staff and other Christians in the area, and the smaller Leprosy Church beside the Leprosy Hospital which was relocated to its present position in 1965. Both hold regular services of worship on Sundays and other Christian special occasions.

A new Hospital Chapel within the General Hospital will be completed in the near future and will offer a quiet place of peace and meditation for people of all religions at any time. Students and staff participate in regular daily prayer meetings, weekly bible study classes, and other Christian activities throughout the year, and there is also a youth group and a women’s group which meet regularly.

CHC has overcome many challenges in the past, and will face more in the future as it strives to maintain high-quality, modern health services to the poor and sick of the CHT. But we must never forget that without faith in God, nothing would be possible. CHC is dedicated to following the example of Our Lord Jesus Christ, remembering always the health of the soul as well as the body.

“It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him…” (Acts 3:16)
“….Your faith has made you well." (Luke 17:19)
