First Presbyterian Church of Olathe
Jesus taught, proclaimed the gospel, and healed every kind of disease and sickness (physical, mental, spiritual)… and he sent out his followers to do the same (Matthew 4:23; Luke 9:2, 10:9; Mark16:15-17). Since God cares about our spirit, mind and body, then we should also care! As you care for and love yourself, you are more able to better serve and “love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:36-39). Our Health & Wellness Ministry is designed to help our community in this journey.
On Saturday, March 28th, 2015, over 40 area health care providers, area businesses, educators and agencies are coming together to offer free screenings, information, activities, seminars and workshops to our community. The event will be held from 10 am to 4pm.
