HEALTH MINISTRY
The Health Ministry team seeks to promote health and wholeness – body, mind and spirit – in a faith community through activities such as health education and counseling, advocacy, referrals, and pastoral visits in homes, hospitals, and nursing homes.
Jennifer Smith is the Health Ministry team chair for the congregation along with team members David Chong, Rose Garnier, Pete Jones, Kathleen Mahan, Katherine Miao and Dan Smith. The Health Ministry team, the Deacons and volunteers work closely with the pastor to provide a caring community and is available to provide health-related assistance to anyone who requests it.
Many of the church staff have now been educated in the administration of Narcan and there are multiple doses available at the church. The team also provides weekly health/wellness tips in the church newsletter.
