Health and Wellness

About

The Health and Wellness Ministry is a group of parishioners who are interested in the health of our fellow parishioners. Various health-related events are held throughout the year. The most popular events include the annual health fair and the SOUL 5k run/1-mile walk. Meetings are scheduled for every other month or more often depending on event planning. Health professions or other parishioners who are interested in health are always welcome to join us. We welcome new ideas for other parish activities.

 Health and Wellness Ministry Health Tip of the Month

In this extremely warm weather, remember to stay hydrated! Drink water, rather than sugary, caffeinated or alcoholic beverages. If you are sweating a lot, combine drinking water with snacks or sports drinks. This will help replace the salt and minerals you loose when you sweat.

Wellness Thought

God shapes the world by prayer. The more praying there is in the world, the better the world will be, the mightier the forces against evil -E.M.Bounds  

Hearing Loop

Since 2012, St. Joseph is blessed to have an induction hearing loop installed within the church. This technology allows those who have a “T-Coil” setting on their hearing aid or a compatible receiver to have the sound from our sound system delivered directly to them. The perimeter of the church seating area is lined with the loop, so if you are within the church itself, it works.

You can find out more about this technology here: https://www.hearingloss.org/hearing-help/technology/hat/hearing-loop-technology/. We are also blessed with a local who not only knows a great about this technology, but is also willing to assist those who may need help to avail themselves of this technology.
