Sacred Medical Order Church of Hope (SMOCH)
The Sacred Medical Order is a private membership, religious organization, representing a Hospitaller tradition and legacy dedicated to preserving the tradition of monastic medicine as an intangible cultural heritage, including its rich history of hospital works, nursing, ambulance services, medical provisions and missions, vocations, care modalities, and Christian charity. History records that the first hospitals were Christian missions, maintained by religious orders, and is a conspicuous mark upon the landscape of humanity. Medical missions is the term used for missionary endeavors that began since earliest times that involve the administration of medical care, solace, and various forms assistance and treatment. The Hospitallers began in the Levant before the crusades, and extended into Europe, and eventually traveled to locales into the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, the Americas, and even the Pacific Islands.
