Mind, body and spirit all work together as a whole.
A healthy diet and consistent exercise speak to spiritual obedience.
A healthy body impacts the spirit in a positive way and helps one to love God, oneself and others.
The mission of the Health and Wellness Ministry is to help the congregation and community care for themselves and one another…to attain, maintain and/or regain the best possible WHOLE-person health and wellness of body, mind, and spirit -- following the example of Christ and guided by the Holy Scriptures.

This Month's Challenge
Join us! We meet every 4th Tuesday of the month at 6:30pm on Zoom!
February is American Heart Month to raise awareness about heart disease, the leading cause of death in the US. For the month of February, focus on heart health by finding an activity to increase your heart rate and try to stay in that targeted zone for 20 to 30 minutes. Go for a brisk walk, march in place, ride a bike, do a seated march.
Use this formula to find your target heart rate for exercise:
220 minus your age = your maximum heart rate so you are doing too much if your heart rate exceeds this number
70-80% of your maximum HR improves fitness level and power (moderate/aerobic)
60-70% of your maximum HR increases metabolism and aerobic endurance (light/fat burning)
