About us
The Phenix City SDA Church Health Ministries Department is committed to providing Biblical, as well as proven historical and current scientific information, to assist you in improving and maintaining your health of body, mind, and spirit.
“In the work of the Gospel, teaching and healing are never to be separated.” E. G. White, The Ministry of Healing, p. 141
Mission Statement: Sharing hope and wholeness through the healing power of Christ.
Vision Statement: To equip and inspire all church members to practice God’s principles of health, and to shine the love of Jesus to all in need.
Core Values:
Inspiration: We believe the Word of God (and the Spirit of Prophecy) is the very best guide to making careful and wise choices in every area of life, including our health.
Evidence: We operate under the conviction that God is the author of all true science. Therefore, we respect evidence which stands up to the rigors of careful examination and analysis according to accepted scientific principles.
Balance: We are deeply committed to balance–physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual– in every aspect of life to support health, happiness, and healing.
Relationships: Social support is essential to human existence and health. Positive relationships with family, friends, community, and God play a significant role in personal health, productivity, and our ability to serve.
