SOUL CARE INTRO
Soul Care exists to equip the church community to reach its fullest potential in Christ. Scripture tells us to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Soul Care takes this advice to heart by offering resources for the whole person, whether targeting areas to heal or adding "tools" to your life-kit.
You may request services by calling the Soul Care Center at (916) 626-3017 or submitting a Service Request Form. Someone from the Soul Care Team will contact you within 48 hours.

WELLNESS EDUCATION
Do you have strong spiritual health but poor physical health? Have you ever recognized the impact overeating, poor food quality, or lack of exercise have on your moods, energy level, and relationships, yet struggled to live differently? Do you ever wonder how to instill better habits in your kids? Are you facing a scary food allergy or food-related health diagnosis?
If you answered yes to any of these questions you're not alone. Physical health is a significant part of the believer's life and it's difficult to maintain in this busy, broken world. We're here to support you. We don't pretend to be "experts" but rather people passionate about using good stewardship over the bodies God has gifted us. We're here to offer individual support for questions about nutrition, food choices, vitamins, developing new habits, self-care, and exercise.
For More information please contact Susan Weckter at or (916) 645-0861
Note: Wellness Coaching is meant to compliment other options within Soul Care (i.e. budget, career & life coaching; counseling; workshops; groups; classes), as well as, resources available through other ministries and in the surrounding community. We realize life is complex and struggles or growth areas aren't solved by being pigeon-holed. Therefore, we're here to find the best combination of resources for YOU.
