The mission of the Healthcare Association of Vanderveer Park United Methodist Church
is to empower the individual/community to be proactive in making informed choices to
promote physical, emotional and spritual (holistic) wellness.
To achieve this we provide the following when possible:
- Provide educational materials on health issues and nutrition on going
- Provide training and Basic Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation for our youth
- Raise awareness on early detection and prevention of diseases
- Do basic non-evasive screening e.g. blood pressure screening monthly or as more often as needed
- Have selected health topics in the bulletin every 4th Sunday of each month plus additional health minute if necessary
- Have annual health fair/church fair when possible
- Make house visits if necessary
- Use guidelines from the Bible to minister to the mental, spiritual and physical needs
of the congregation/community to encourage and strengthen their faith.
Note: Medical studies have shown that people of faith even to the midst of despair,
respond more favorable to crisis in their lives.
