Today we held our first ever “Health Fair” for our church family and community for those 55 and older. The purpose of today’s fair was to help spread awareness and helpful information for the needs and concerns of those looking to educate themselves for potential challenges in the future.
The presenters did a marvelous job tying in both their particular sphere of influence (whether chiropractic or alternative health, nutrition or balancing the need for rest and exercise) with the spiritual realties that affect many seniors who battle with anxiety and depression.
After the main presentations, all the attendees were able to interact with our health professionals at various booths they set up. The afternoon was finished with a wonderfully healthy meal prepared by Debbie Gursky along with her sharing keen insights into cooking healthy and well seasoned meals.
We had a better turn out than expected and look forward to continuing these enterprises for awareness and healthy living, looking to include more community members and our neighboring churches too. Special thanks to all those involved in helping make our first ever Health Fair, sponsored by our Helping Hearts Ministry, a success.
