Our Health Ministry promotes healthy lifestyle choices.
The ministry provides information on getting medical care, medications, regular physical activity, eating to maintain health.
The church website is our portal to all areas of health information and for all ages.
We promote attendance of health programs that are offered year round throughout our community and at area hospitals and other facilities.
