Our Approach to Health
At Kp3 SDA Church, we believe that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Our Health Ministry is dedicated to helping people achieve optimal health through education, prevention, and lifestyle changes based on biblical principles and modern health science.
The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a long heritage of health ministry, and Adventists worldwide are recognized for their longevity and quality of life due to healthy lifestyle practices.
