Parish Nurse Ministry
About the Parish Nurse Ministry
Health, Wellness, Guidance
The church has a role in the ministry of health and healing, which began when Jesus sent out His disciples to preach, teach, and heal.
Parish Nursing promotes the wellness of body, mind, and spirit to all members of Bethel Lutheran Church and the community. The parish nurse integrates the concept of wholistic care into his/her nursing care and ministry, stressing health maintenance and illness prevention.
Our parish nurse, Jeanne Townsend, provides leadership in identifying and meeting the health education and support needs of all members of Bethel Lutheran Church. This ministry requires the ongoing support from the congregation, Health Cabinet, and clergy.
