Health Ministry Services

 Welcome to our Health Ministry Services available through Messiah Lutheran Church and the Toledo, Ohio area. We have included suggested medical websites to help increase your knowledge and understanding of many medical concerns.

Each month you will find scheduled activities and events here at Messiah and the local area.

We will also post health tips to help promote the wellness of your entire body physically and mentally.

We hope you will check with us often to see what is new, as well as make regular and frequent use of the resources of our Health Ministry here at Messiah and through this website.

 Sherry, our parish nurse, is a member of the Parish Nurse Association of Northwest Ohio and attends monthly meetings along with about 50 other parish nurses from Protestant and Catholic churches to help her find new and better ways of improving her health ministry here at Messiah Lutheran Church. She is here to help in any way she is able.

The following will help define the role of the Parish Nurse in helping to fulfill your needs.
