Baptist Medical Missions International (BMMI) is the humanitarian/benevolent arm of BMA Missions.

BMMI formally began in 1996. Since the first trip to Honduras, teams of physicians, nurses and other medical professionals have made trips to dozens of different countries providing care. BMMI teams consist of volunteer professionals who work in a variety of conditions and provide medicine and consultation for various illnesses and diseases at no cost to the patient.
