Faith and Health Symposium: Being Well
The church has an important role in helping people be well, in addition to caring for the sick. Now more than ever, the church needs to claim its role in health promotion rooted in Scripture and tradition and our communities need to create opportunities for wellness for all. Working together, congregations and healthcare professionals can collaborate in responding faithfully to the challenge of health promotion, considering what can be done together that neither can do alone.
Join us November 10, 2018 at North Park University for third biennial symposium. This year’s keynote address will be “honoring the Body as a Spiritual Practice” by Ruth Haley Barton.
