Parish Nurse

The Parish Nurse ministry at Prince of Peace helps to care for one another by attaining, maintaining and regaining the best possible whole person's wellness of body, mind and spirit.  The role of the Parish Nurse is a health counselor, referral source, and an advocate for an individual.  The Parish Nurse is a blend of professional nursing and spiritual caregiving.  The Parish Nurse visits members at the church and in their homes or care facilities.

Mary Hume was commissioned as the first Parish Nurse of Prince of Peace in July, 1999.

 

 
Walk Your Pet Month:  Promoting Health for You and Your Pet

January is Walk Your Pet Month, a timely encouragement to begin the new year with healthy habits for both you and your animal companions. We remember that pets are part of God’s good creation, entrusted to our care. Taking regular walks is not only beneficial for their physical and mental well-being, but also a way for us to practice faithful stewardship.

Daily walks help pets maintain a healthy weight, improve cardiovascular fitness, and reduce behavioral issues caused by boredom or excess energy. For owners, walking provides increased physical activity, stress relief, and the blessing of time outdoors to reflect, pray, or simply enjoy God’s handiwork.

During the colder months, we care for our neighbors—and our animals—by dressing appropriately, using reflective gear, and keeping walks brief in harsh weather.

Celebrate Walk Your Pet Month by making daily walks a routine, nurturing a healthier and joy-filled life for you and your pet
