PASTOR’S CALLR

PASTORSDecember 7, 2012

December 7, 2012

I pray God's favor and blessings on your ministry. I just would like to share with you the Health Initiative Ministry we started at Grace Gospel Tabernacle.

The reason we started this Health Initiative was because I was noticing that some of the members were sick, overweight or had some type of disease (high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney problems, etc).

Some of the members who invested in the Health Initiative lost up to 30lbs. Pastors this Health Initiative will assist you and your congregation in becoming healthier!

As pastor's we should not only be concern with our congregations spiritual health, we should also be concerned with their physical health.

I attached the pdf information, if you are interested or know another pastor who might be interested please give me a call at 718-690-1238. Our church social enterprise website is: https://GGT.my90forlife.com

Blessings, Pastor DeGraffe

The Power to Generate Endless Revenue Streams through Health Initiatives

…founded in Hempstead, NY in 1992, by Michelle and Harry Edmonds. It was the first

nationwide, educationally-based, holistic weight loss

Our Message

that family traditions for maintaining wellness, are

superior to traditional medical approaches for

healing disease

Model, providing a road map, for continuation.

Measures of success are the wellness scores,

reported weight loss and visual improvements.

Baby Boomers and Health Care Disparities

Serenity more often attracts clients of African, Caribbean and Latina descent,

raised on an intuitive approach to wellness, passed down by their elders.

However, the baby boomer generation gradually moved away from these

traditions, often because they were scoffed at by allopathic medical

doctors. Rumors of botched surgeries , bad drugs, and bad history, fueled the

distrust of the traditional medical approach

As a consequence, these groups lead this nation’s “obesity epidemic” and have high blood pressure, diabetes

and kidney disease at rates well above the

national averages.

SOLUTIONS?

“Lock-arms” with clergy in your community

Increase the number of wellness practioners who are trained to serve

diverse cultural groups

Promote Sustainable Health Initiatives, over one day Health Fairs

Let’s not embrace the “bad gene” theory of high blood pressure and

diabetes

Our commitment to education and the elimination of health care disparities, inspired Serenity to

partner with Dr. Joel Wallach, and his wife,Dr. Ma Lan, and the product-line they

founded as "Youngevity".
