Clergy

Our goal is " A Healthier You"

The goal of Cornerstone-BCH3C is to lead clergy (pastors) in taking a more active role to improve personal health by connecting them to community agencies who focus on wellness, fitness and health.

Special attention is given to negative conditions that affect good physical health and fitness that lead to obesity, hypertension, mental illness, diabetes and depression.

Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
Save me, and I shall be saved,
For You are my praise. Jer 17:14

congregations

Our Goal is: "A Healthier Them"

The goal of Cornerstone-BCH3C congregations aligns with that of the clergy's goals. We feel strongly about our clergy's health and therefore, just as strong about the members of their churches.

Our goal is to see participating congregation members physically fit and healthier.

"Behold, I will bring it health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth." Jer 33:6

Communities

Our Goal is: "A Healthier Us"

Cornerstone-BCH3C believes that when clergy and congregations experience healthy outcomes then our community benefits from a healthier us.

Our goal is to help make our community a health place to live and grow.

Cornerstone-BCH3C is committed to the process that leads to a physically fit, well and healthier community.

"Speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head — Christ — from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love." Eph 4:15-16
