Healing Touch is just one of the programs of the Health and Wellness Ministry
Promoting personal health and healing has been central to Christianity from the beginning.
The Health and Wellness Ministry has programs to promote well-being, empower you through self-help and support healing through healing touch, prayer or laying on of hands.
Emily MacDonald, a registered nurse, is the health and wellness advocate. Available to consult with individuals on a one-to-one basis, she can suggest programs, refer you to community resources and education, and advocate on your behalf when you have health concerns.
You can contact Emily by phone at (250) 388.5188, ext. 233 or email her.
