The WPAUMC Health As Wholeness Team invites congregations with a functioning Health Ministry to participate in our first Pathways to WHoly Living Health Ministry Recognition program.
The purpose of the award is to recognize intentional health ministries that promote the spiritual, physical, emotional, relational, and environmental health of congregations and the communities, and to encourage other congregations to develop their own health ministries.
To participate, a health ministry must have functioned for at least one year and use a wholistic approach in activities.
Download a registration form. Once completed, e-mail to healthteam@wpaumc.org or mail to Barbara Lewis, WPA Health As Wholeness Coordinator, 509 Rondeau Drive, Erie, PA. 16505, by May 1.
Participants are asked to prepare a poster demonstrating and promoting the health ministry activity they are most proud of. Posters will be displayed during annual conference.
Here are some great reasons to participate:
- You’ll be recognized by the Annual Conference for the good work your congregation has done in promoting health ministries.
- By sharing your ideas, you’ll encourage other congregations to begin a health ministry.
- Others will become more aware of healthy activities, programs, and/or ministries.
- You’ll help others to understand what Health Ministry is all about.
