Health Ministry
Our Health Ministry is a Christ-centered approach to taking care of our bodies.
Through the Newstart program, we emphasize the importance of physical, mental, and spiritual health.
Our goal is to help you grow in your faith and in your overall well-being.
NEW START Program
As Seventh Day Adventists, we want to honour God’s plan for our physical, mental, and spiritual health. The NEW START program encourages a lifestyle based on eight fundamental principles: Nutrition, Exercise, Water, Sunlight, Temperance, Air, Rest, and Trust.
NUTRITION
Nutrition is the base of our physical health and recovery. A plant-based diet is scientifically proved to be the best for your cells to naturally thrive and repair.
EXERCISE
Exercise plays a key role in our physical, and mental health. We are recommended to move and exercise the bodies God gave us in order to achieve this better health.
WATER
This element is essential to our bodies, inside and out. Knowing when and how to drink water in important, as well as using it externaly to stimulate and repair.
SUNLIGHT
The light the sun provides has many health benefits and plays a major role for the body metabolism and hormonal balance. Getting this energy daily is vital.
TEMPERANCE
Using good things in moderation, and avoid the bad things is also one of the pillar of this lifestyle. It is something we constantly have to look for, in every aspect of our life.
AIR
The first element vital to our survival. The quality of the air we breath and how we breath can have major impact on our health: better mood, more energy, and a sense of well-being.
REST
Whether it be sleeping or just taking a break from our activities, it allows our body and mind to reset.
TRUST
Trust in Divine power is directly linked to our physical health (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Trust in God is a gift leading to right life choices.

‘The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.
This was the LORD’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?"
