​We Are:
Justified by the blood of Christ
Engaged in the work of His Church
Seeking to follow and join Him on the journey
Unwilling to return to what we once were
Staying the course and bearing the Cross

We Are:
Living out a commitment as a local church which involves the following responsibilities:
  • demonstrating a Godly lifestyle in the community
  • exercising one’s spiritual gifts in diligent service
  • contributing financially to the​work of the ministry
  • giving and receiving admonishment in love and
  • faithfully participating in corporate worship.
Much is expected, but much is at stake. Only when every believer is faithful to this kind of commitment, is the church able to live up to her calling as Christ’s representative here on earth. To put it simply, How you function as a member does matter!

Health Care Ministry
"Springing Into Spring"

2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away: behold the new has come." 
When the weather warms up after a long winter, you might feel more than ready for spring. Getting outdoors again can feel revitalizing, and longer days are also much appreciated. However, it’s not unusual for people to notice a few health problems during spring. Knowing a little about these ailments may help you avoid them and feel healthier throughout the season.  Here are a few to consider. Spring allergies, asthma, spring colds, bug and Insect bites, exercise injuries and sunlight.


Spring allergies
 Seasonal allergies are a common problem, thanks to budding trees, bushes and plants that release pollen into the air. “If you experience spring allergies every year, a good tip is to start using an intranasal corticosteroid or oral antihistamine a couple of weeks before your symptoms typically start. This can help calm down the body’s response to the allergens before symptoms are severe. If you do start having allergy symptoms, these same over-the-counter treatments can be started. However, know that these treatments need to be used consistently for two to four weeks before you may notice any benefit.”

Asthma
Asthma may be another issue during the spring months, depending on your triggers for the symptoms. Springtime asthma triggers include:
  • Insect repellants
  • Pollen
  • Temperature changes
  • Yard fertilizers
  • Often if asthma is worse in the spring, it’s because of underlying allergens contributing to symptoms or because individuals are increasing their activity levels.
 But if you think your asthma symptoms are worsening due to increased exercise, contact your primary care provider.

Spring colds
 It may seem strange, but spring is a peak time for the common cold. Symptoms can be treated as needed with over-the-counter treatments.To avoid catching a cold in the first place, keep washing your hands frequently and avoid anyone who is sick. Also, try your best not to touch your eyes, nose and mouth throughout the day.
 If you are battling with a cold, increase your water intake and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist more than seven to 10 days, your fever is greater than 100.6 degrees Fahrenheit or your symptoms initially improved then became worse again, reach out to your primary care provider.”

Bug and insect bites
 The start of outdoor sports, barbecues and gardening are all part of spring. However, so are bugs and insects. Spring and summer do place individuals at higher risk for these bites.
 As you start spending more time outdoors, stay vigilant about using insect repellant to avoid pesky bug bites. Also, when out in wooden areas, wear long pants, long sleeves and a hat.

 Exercise injuries
 Exercise injuries are common during the spring as people hop back into outdoor workouts. Before doing any physical activity, make sure to stretch and warm up your muscles. Also, don’t forget to cool down afterwards.

Sunlight
 Did you know you can be overexposed to UV rays even on cloudy days? So, during the spring and leading into the summer months, make sure to protect yourself from the sun. For adults, applying sunscreen to the face daily as part of a morning routine not only protects from sunburn, but it also helps protect skin against aging. Always wear at least SPF 30 sunscreen when you’re outside and apply it 30 minutes beforehand. Reapply it every two hours, or more often if you’re sweating or swimming. Wearing sunglasses and hats help, too.
 With just a few safety measures, you can avoid spring health issues or keep them from becoming bigger problems.
 Spring represents a season of new life and growth. The days are getting longer, and the weather is getting warmer. This provides more opportunities to take advantage of outdoor activities. With the longer days and more sunshine, people also just tend to be a little bit happier as they come out of the darker winter months. Similarly, spring feels like a time to refresh and restart – to kick bad habits and work on implementing healthier new habits as we look toward the summer.

For more information on Spring Health issues talked to your Health Care Provider!

Movement for Life

     7 WAYS YOUR HEART BENEFITS FROM EXERCISE
  1. Lowers Blood Pressure. A healthy heart pushes out more blood with each beat, enabling it to function more efficiently.
  2. Improves Blood Flow: Regular cardio-based physical activity enables the heart to achieve improved blood flow in the small vessels.
  3. Improves Workout Efficiency. Because of this, people who work out regularly have hearts that perform better under stress
  4.  Lowers Cholesterol: increasing the amount of healthy HDL cholesterol and possibly lowering bad LDL cholesterol by as much as 10 percent. 
  5. Decreases Risk Of Heart Disease, Stroke/Diabetes: Regular exercise helps reduce coronary heart disease and helps blood sugar levels in a healthy range.
  6. Reduces The Incidence of Heart Arrhythmia
  7. Atrial Fibrillation: A common heart rhythm problem, AFib comes with a five-fold increased risk of stroke caused by a blood clot.
Before you begin any new exercise plan, talk with your doctor
 
   Tips for Starting Physical Activity
  • Some physical activity is better than none. You can start slowly and build up from there slowly.
  • Choose physical activities that do not require special gear
  •  Turn on some music and host a dance party with friends and family.
  • It’s healthy to drink water while you’re exercising, and when done, eat a healthy snack like orange slices, bananas or a small handful of unsalted nuts. Avoid fruit juices or sugary drinks, such as soda.
  • Try to be active for at least 10 minutes at a time without breaks.
  • Aim for at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity.
  • Do the “talk test” to make sure you are exercising at a pace that you can maintain. You should be able to speak a few words in a row, but you should not be able to sing.
How can I start to be active?
  • Pick an activity you enjoy.
  • To increase your activity level, add an activity that sounds fun and try it out.
  • Set a goal, add it to your calendar, and try to stick with it; having a plan for activity may help you be consistent.
  • Start slowly and add a little at a time.
  • The idea of being active at least 150 minutes per week may seem like too much at first. Start by moving for 10 minutes a day.
  • Begin by performing physical activity ten minutes at a time.
  • Build to a 15-minute walk or activity.
  • Make activity part of your daily routine.
  • Make it social. Involve your family and friends.
  • Seek support. Who will inspire you to get moving and help you reach your goals?
  • Wear the right gear. A rain jacket, sun hat and/or winter clothes.
  • Find a place to stay active indoors in inclement weather. Your local community center, place of worship may offer options, a local recreation (rec) or community center.
  • Prepare to break through your roadblocks such as: I don’t have time or I’m too tired, I’m not that motivated or interested, switch it up, try a new activity, such as dancing/ water aerobics, I’m afraid it will cost too much.
  • What are the top three things keeping YOU from being more active?  Make a list of any barriers that come to mind and how you can overcome them.
Remember to talk to your doctor about starting an exercise program…don’t compare yourself with others… do what is best for you.
