Health & Wellness Team — Caring for Body, Mind, and Spirit

We believe that honoring God includes caring for the health and well-being of His people. The Health & Wellness Team serves by promoting wholeness through education, support, and prayer.

Our Mission

To encourage a lifestyle of balance and stewardship, reminding the church that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. We provide guidance, organize health events, and walk alongside members in times of sickness and recovery.

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.” — 1 Corinthians 6:19–20

What We Do

• Health screenings and wellness programs
• Education on nutrition, exercise, and preventive care
• Support and visitation for the sick and elderly
• Prayer and encouragement for those facing physical or mental challenges

Our Vision

A healthy church is a strong church. As we grow in faith, we also grow in wisdom about caring for our whole selves. Our vision is a community that flourishes physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” — 3 John 1:2
