The Health and Wellness Ministry works to heighten the awareness of all our church members—young, old, and in-between—about the role of good health and wellness in their ability to be useful in the service of the Lord.  Its goal is to ensure that all SBC members, as members of the body of Christ, become the best possible stewards over the physical bodies God has entrusted to our care. To achieve that goal, the members of this ministry host a number of physical fitness classes throughout the year, along with seminars on particular health conditions (such as diabetes, sickle cell, or HIV/AIDS), health expos, and testing/screening events designed to promote total wellness, health awareness, and disease prevention.  It also prepares and disseminates healthy eating and nutrition guidelines and hosts healthy cooking demonstrations targeted toward church members of all ages.
