Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again. I Thes. 5:23 New Living Testament
The Discipleship Task Force Disciples Nurturing Actions or DNA ministry will be rolling out in early 2024. This new ministry team will provide support groups for clergy and lay to journey together through Biblically informed and prayerful discussions about resources, tools, training, scripture, and encouragement in a sharing community via Zoom, in-person, or hybrid. It will provide an opportunity to share Godly principles by learning, discussing, and practicing ways of helpful body, mind, and spiritual actions.
When we mention "body, mind, and spirit," we are referencing:
1. Body - nutrition, exercise, and the impact of physical ailment
2. Mind - trauma, grief, stress, anxiety, and mental health
3. Spirit - an interest and/or commitment in using Biblically and/or faith-informed inspiration, study, and spiritual practices in your life.
