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.

The focus for September is financial health.
Tip #1: Money can be a major source of stress, affecting your health. Money mindfulness can be a useful approach. Shop and spend smarter. Slow down. Be aware when you are making a financial decision. Give yourself a day or two before making a purchase. Put decisions in context of what makes you happy today and also fits your future financial plans.
1 Timothy 6:17 As to the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy.
Tip #2: Set financial goals. Be aware of what you want from your finances and set a path to getting there. Make goals short term (paying bills, paying off debt, making an emergency fund, savings) and long term (retirement savings and leaving a legacy for others). Make a list of everything you spend in a month and then assess what expenses you can reduce.
1 Chronicles 29:14 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer thus willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.
Tip #3: Build good financial habits. Check your bank statements, credit card bills and investment accounts regularly. This makes sure your money is managed property and to identify areas where you can cut back on spending. Pay off your bills and credit card charges monthly to avoid late fees. Reduce credit cards to one or two. Regularly track your progress against your goals and plans.
Romans 13:7 Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed.
Tip #4: Build a budget. Map out your income and fixed expenses like rent, cell phone, etc. Estimate your variable expenses like groceries, utilities, entertainment, charitable donations. Next, consider where you can reduce spending and increase savings. Set up an emergency savings fund with enough money to ideally cover 3-6 months of living expenses in case of accident or unemployment.
Philippians 4:11-13 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In each and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
