Health Ministry
 |
UUMC's Health Ministry supports and promotes the spiritual, mental and physical health of the church and family community. It offers free monthly blood pressure screenings and promotes illness prevention and wellness of the church community. The church has a significant influence over daily lives and values, and healing is central to Jesus' ministry on earth. While serious illness raises questions of faith, a sense of meaning and purpose is a powerful force for healing and faith. Also, a strong support system boosts immunity to disease. A congregational health line has been established at 919-929-7191, ext. 28. You are welcome to leave a message regarding health care questions or concerns and someone from the Health Ministry will be in touch to assist you. Through this ministry, the church endeavors to reclaim its ancient mission of caring for the body as well as the mind and the spirit. Faith Community Nursing: Faith Community Nursing (FCN) is a specialized practice of professional nursing that holds the spiritual dimension to be central to nursing practice. It focuses on the promotion of health within the context of the values, beliefs and practices of a faith community. Jane Campbell serves as UUMC's Faith Community Nurse and is available by appointment. |
