"… I was hungry and you gave
me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a
stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and
you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me…"

"We encourage
individuals to
pursue a healthy lifestyle
and
affirm the importance of
preventive health care,
health education,
environmental and occupational safety,
good nutrition, and secure
housing in achieving health."

MISSION STATEMENT
Congregational Health Ministries (
CHM) recognizes that health
consists of the whole being, mental, emotional, spiritual and physical, as initiated
by the creator God. Working as the hands of Christ, we commit ourselves to promoting
healthy living for all of God's people through educative and supportive care. We
acknowledge and invite the Holy Spirit, the dynamic force guiding and directing our
service, as we share Christ from the heart of Wichita, not only to the congregation
of First United Methodist Church, but also to the downtown community.
