Welcome to the Health Ministries Department
The Health Ministries Department has so much to share with you, from
personal experience of being diabetic, to amazing facts about the benefits of fruit and Veg.
First we would like to share this very interesting video in the link below based on Healthy Living.
Is health part of true Bible religion? In 3 John verse 2 it says, "Beloved, I wish above
all things that you may prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers."
