Linking Faith and Health
What is Health Ministry? It is Sowing seeds of Wellness, Growing a Healthy Congregation
Health Ministry/Parish Nurse Ministry seeks to promote a lifestyle that brings health and wholeness to the body, mind and spirit. It seeks to make real in each believer the abundant life that was demonstrated, promised and made possible through Jesus Christ.
It is based on Jesus' ministry of healing.
The ministry seeks to answer questions, provide resources, referral and education related to the health needs of congregants and friends.
It also strives to provide support for those dealing with life changes, illness, distress and loss.
It recognizes that we are made in the image of God, created by God, and that wholeness and healing come from God.
Psalm 73:26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and portion forever.
