Living Saviour Lutheran Church has established a ministry for Health and Wholeness that seeks to connect faith and health. Through a process of education about health and spiritual practices, the ministry seeks to integrate the whole person.
This wholeness flows from humanity to our good creation as well. The ministry seeks to integrate how we care for the earth and its inhabitants, plant, animal, and human, while encouraging those practices which focus on a healthy environment to promote a healthy humanity.

How to Use an AED and CPR Review – Sunday, February 1st at 2pm
You asked and we listened. Health and Wholeness has responded to requests for a class on how to use an AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) so we have one scheduled. LSLC member, Lyn Addy who is certified in First Aid, will provide instruction and practice, plus a CPR review. Learn some simple skills that might save a life! Light refreshments provided.
Focus for January 2026 is Making a New You.
Tip#1: Walk with intention. Start the year by adding simple movement to your day. A short walk, whether five minutes or fifteen, helps strengthen the heart, clear the mind, and create space for prayer and reflection. As you walk, thank God for the gift of your body and the ability to move and enjoy nature. The American Heart Association recommends 150 minutes per week of moderate exercise or walking. That’s 30 minutes five days a week. Remember, beginning is more important than doing it perfectly.
Proverbs 16:3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Tip#2: Build a strong foundation. Care for your core. Core strength supports balance, posture, and everyday activities like standing, bending, and lifting. This week try adding a few gentle core exercises such as seated leg lifts, wall-supported standing exercises, or light stretching. Offer this time as an act of stewardship, honoring the body God has entrusted to you.
Hebrews 12:11-12 No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening. But afterward, there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.
Tip#3: Choose foods that give life. Healthy eating doesn’t require strict rules. Focus on eating nourishing foods-more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and water, rather than focusing on what to avoid. Preparing meals with care can be an act of gratitude, reminding us that God provides what we need to sustain both body and spirit.
1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
Tip#4: Practice grace and consistency. Stay faithful, not perfect. Some days will be easier than others to maintain a healthy routine and that’s ok. If you miss a walk, skip an exercise, or make an unhealthy choice, begin again the next day. Lasting health grows through grace-filled consistency. Trust that God walks with you in every step, strengthening both your resolve and your heart.
3 John 1:2 Beloved, l wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in good health, even as thy soul prospereth.
