RETIRED MISSIONARIES WELFARE

MARM – Medical Assistance to Retired Missionaries was started as a by product of the Love your Brother Scheme in April 2001, to encourage the member missionaries who were contributing sacrificially towards the medical crisis of their fellow missionaries. "Starting with Rs. 1,000/-p.a, it was increased to Rs. 4,000/- p.a. for the last financial year. At present Rs. 2,000/-,per annum, is available to all retired member missionaries. Rs. 5,000/- is available to non - LYB member missionaries for their hospitalisation. All the retired LYB members are given medical assistance under the MUT Medical scheme, as any other serving missionary. The basis is "Once a missionary, Always a missionary".

The retired member missionaries should send their medical claims through their missions
