Welcome to the Baltimore Guild-Catholic Medical Association!

We invite you to join the Baltimore Guild Catholic Medical Association (BG-CMA) discussion forum. The BG-CMA is a group of medical professionals that strive to integrate our Catholic faith into the practice of medicine. The organization provides members with forums for dialogue on issues such as abortion, euthanasia, contraception, care for the marginalized, genetic research and testing, and stem cell research, to name a few.
Membership in our Guild and our parent organization, the Catholic Medical Association, affords you an opportunity to find fellowship, receive spiritual support to face the challenges before us, and attend medically and ethically relevant presentations by experts in their field of study. Our Guild celebrates an Annual “White Mass” for medical professionals, has spiritual retreats throughout the year, and fosters medical students in training.
We endeavor to bear witness to our faith for our community and society. As former Archbishop and now Edwin Cardinal O’Brien once enunciated during a homily at one of our Annual White Masses, “…you good Catholic Medical professionals must persevere; stay the course in attacking the moral leprosy within your own noble community”.
