Health Ministry
Mission Statement - To promote and educate God’s plan to restore us to whole health.
Overview - It was once said by Benjamin Franklin, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure.” Health-related medical conditions can be easier to prevent, and in some cases, reversed
with lifestyle change. Temperance affects all areas of one’s lifestyle – getting the right amount
of fresh air, sunshine, rest, exercise, good nutrition, water, and trust in divine power. It is up to
us to make healthy choices. “Every human being, created in the image of God, is endowed with a
power akin to that of the Creator—individuality, power to think and to do.”
—Ellen White, Education, page 17
We need to be mindful of the areas in life that affect our well-being. Disease, illness, and
hardships can affect our physical, emotional, intellectual, social, environmental, and spiritual
well-being. This Ministry will focus on providing information that is Christ centered, and will
incorporate the 8 Laws of Health* to help guide individuals and families to whole health. The
following are some of the programs this ministry will provide:
- Diabetes Undone Program – An 8-step Journey to Whole Health – This 8 session group workshop includes the use of a workbook with journal, cookbook, and a DVD of the 8 laws of health. Food samples are provided each 1.5 hour session.
- Plant-based Cooking Class – Health Topic, food demonstrations, food samples and recipes
- Natural Soap-making Class – Learn how to avoid harmful chemicals such as aluminum uses in antiperspirants, and sodium lauryl sulfate and others used in laundry detergent and soap.
* The 8 Laws of Health - “Pure air, sunlight, abstemiousness, rest, exercise, proper diet, the use of
water, trust in divine power—these are the true remedies” (Ellen G. White, Ministry of Healing, (Nampa:
Pacific Press, 1905), page 127)
