Health Ministry The Lord is the everlasting God… He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding not one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary, and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:27-31
The First Presbyterian Church Health Ministry helps members of the
congregation address all aspects of our spiritual, physical and
emotional well-being. It helps us examine our lifestyle choices
allowing each person live up to the potential given to them by God.
