I became a Certified Health Minister through Wesley Theological Seminary's Heal the Sick Program and I am a member of the Health Ministries Association. I am currently working with my church to implement a Health and Wellness committee to begin to education the congregation on current health issues. This will include not only exercise and nutrition but local, state and regional medical issues, local food need and that health and wellness isn't just about these things. It includes so much more. I hope to expand to get us out and about in the community of Weatherford, OK.
Below is a list of offerings that I can lead for your church, organization or small group.
Please contact me with any questions or to inquire about a meeting or rates.

Workshop options:
- Yoga and Christianity- a history of yoga and what practicing it means for us as Christians. 2-3 hours.

- Congregational Health Promoter- This is a day long or two shorter days’ workshop teaching what health ministry is and how to create a Health and Wellness committee in your own church. 8 sessions (1 or 2 day session, could do a weekly class instead for 8 weeks).
- Healthy Cooking Class- Learn how healthy cooking isn’t as hard as it seems. Taste 2-3 different recipes and go home with a recipe booklet. This could also be a “you cook it too” type class, depending on available facilities. 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
- BodyMindSoul: A Workshop- This workshop will combine several of the options together as well as the Faith and Health class teachings. This workshop is meant to bring together these 3 areas: Body, Mind, and Soul into a more full way of seeing health and fitness. This is an all-inclusive workshop and would work best in a retreat style setting. It could be a day long (Saturday 8-5 type session with food) or a 2 partial day retreat (Friday evening 6-9p and Saturday 9-2 with food). Locations choices are numerous. Cost for this workshop will depend on location, number of attendees and supplies. There is also the possibility of bringing in other presenters for special topics.
