Please contact , Care Ministries Coordinator, for more information.
Winners by Losing
Fourth Sunday of the month, 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM
We focus on the goal of altering life habits permanently, and leave the responsibility for establishing and maintaining dieting goals up to the individual and his or her physician. The idea is to replace yesterday's destructive habits with a lifetime of successful habits to become "winners by losing". Our accountability group is based on the unconditional love and power of God in the life of each person. Since each session is self-contained, you are welcome to join us at any time in room M-105. For more information, contact group leader Betty Bledsoe or Debbie Black, Care Ministries Coordinator.
