The
Health Ministry program provides health
education and various health activities to enhance the physical,
mental, and spiritual health of the congregation and their families.
The Health Ministry Council works to accomplish this. Regular activities include monthly blood pressure screenings and an
Influenza Vaccine Clinic.
By its very nature, the congregation is
a healing community. The Gospel mandates that followers of Jesus
go out and preach the kingdom of God and heal. (Luke 9:2) The Church
needs to reclaim its mission of health and healing. With 45 million
Americans uninsured, the accessibility, quality and cost of medical
care become problematic. This makes preventive medicine no longer
an option; it is a necessity!
We now have a book entitled "The Eldercare Handbook: Difficult Choices, Compassionate Solutions" by Stella Mora Henry, R.N., with Ann Convery which is available in the church library.
To get involved with our Health Ministry Council or for more information, please contact the church office.
