The Congregational Health Ministry is a health promotion, disease prevention ministry based on the care of the whole person – body, mind, and spirit.  The ministry leads the congregation to become a community of health and healing.  The CHM members model an understanding of health as being more than physical and encourages members of the congregation to become good stewards of the gift of health.

 The program is rooted in the mission of the church which reclaims the Scripture: “to go out and preach the kingdom of God and to heal, recognize God’s desire that we achieve abundant life (John 10:10) and reaffirm and support the journey toward wellness.  Through the Congregational Health Ministry, the congregation at FBC seeks to develop creative ways of addressing needs and identifying resources to nurture health, wellness, and healing.  This health care ministry strengthens the congregation and enables congregants to focus on serving God by serving others.  The program compliments and supports the Pastor and existing committees within the congregation.
