Health & Wellness Committee plans activities to promote wellness with a holistic approach for our parishioners. Our belief is that our spiritual, emotional, and physical health can not be separated. Each affects the other.

Many of the services we provide were unnecessary when we lived close to our extended families. Our goal is for St. John’s to care for each of its parishioners as an extended family once did. Everyone has a gift that they can share and everyone needs help at some time during his/her life. We need the gifts of all of you to make our parish a warm, welcoming, safe place for all parishioners. There are opportunities to help once or twice a year, once a month, or even weekly.

Opportunities include: Home Visits, Parish Nursing, Blood Pressure Screening, Health Education, and Angel Ministry (described separately elsewhere).

Who is it for? Any parishioner interested in wellness is invited to become a part of this ministry. You do not need to be a medical professional to participate.

Meetings: As determined by the health cabinet.
