They are going through the video series “Rekindling The Reformation” presented by Professor Walter Veith of Amazing Discoveries.

Health Ministry Workshops
Posted by: | Comments
The mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church is to proclaim to all people the everlasting gospel in the context of the Three Angel’s message of Revelation 14:6-12. The commission of Jesus Christ compels us to lead others to accept Jesus as their personal savior and to unite with His church, and nurture them in preparation for His soon return; wholeness and health have been an emphasis of the Seventh-day Adventist church since the 1860s. This emphasis is based on Biblical teaching and instruction. The body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and we have been entrusted with the privilege of maintaining and improving our spiritual, mental, social and physical health. Health Ministries promotes good health and the prevention of ill health to help achieve this goal of wholeness.
Essentially, a Wholistic Health Ministry Program helps the Community Seventh-day Adventist Church fulfill its mission to proclaim to all people the everlasting gospel and promote good health and the prevention of ill health to help the goal of maintaining and improving an individual’s spiritual, mental, social and physical health. The proposed Wholistic Health Ministry Program contributes to the mission of the Church in two ways:
- The Community Seventh-day Adventist Church’s mission as a Christian Church
- The Community Seventh-day Adventist Church’s responsibility to serve the population in its immediate service area.
Funding for the 2008, 2009, and 2010 Health Ministry Program provided by the Community Seventh-day Adventist Church of Meridian, MS is provided by Adventist Health Systems Following After Christ’s Examples in Service (FACES), Winter Park, Florida. FACES grants are provided to conference areas where there is no active Adventist medical facility to support and strengthen Health Ministry Programs of local churches.
2010 professional workshops provided in Meridian are offered in partnership with the following: Mississippi State University Social Work Program, Counselor Education, and Psychology, East Mississippi State Hospital, Meridian Public Schools, and East Central Community College Nursing.
These seven professional workshops have been approved by the Mississippi Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers for 4.33 CE Credits for licensed social workers.
