Churches Set a Unity Plan: Being Healthy, Being Faithful 2012

January 20, 2012 by Joy Williams, Former PHW Regional Coordinator

Thanks to Mary McKeithan for being a key instrumental player in uniting churches in Bladen County on Monday November 28, 2011 at Elizabethtown Presbyterian Church on 800 Broad St. Ms. McKeithan and Joy Williams of Partners in Health and Wholeness collaborated with Bladen churches to set a health focus 2012 calendar for willing congregant members.  Each month features a health topic with supporting health materials and ideas.  There are even guest speakers who are available to help facilitate meetings.

Ms. Mary Swann and Yvonne McGraw are working on a similar calendar for Richmond County and the Pee Dee Baptist Association.

If you are a church and you want a health organization to come to your area or if you are a health organization and you want to be connected with a church, please contact Joy Williams at 919-357- 8625 or jtwilliams@nccouncilofchurches.org.  We look forward to working toward a healthier lifestyle with you in 2012.

About Joy Williams, Former PHW Regional Coordinator

I am passionate about health and faith. Children, families, and elders have my deepest love and concern, and I've cultivated a heart for dance, plants, cooking, water, chilling with great friends, and talking about the matters of the heart. I love the Lord and seek to bring myself and others closer to The King Most High.
