The Oromo Seventh-day Adventist Church believes that there is a direct relation between physical health and spiritual health. The health of and individual and a community are very important. The cost of health is significant part of the budget an individual, family, or the nation at large. Some of the causes of disease could be prevented by making wise choice about diet, abstaining from smoking, substance abuse, alcohol and others habits that harm our body. A healthy life style that makes trust in God the center of all Endeavour, rest, physical exercise, and temperance is the basic message of the department of health.
The objective of the department of Health Ministry of the Oromo Seventh-day Adventist Church is to promote healthy life style among the church members and the community members. The Bible reminds us that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and we have been entrusted with the privilege of maintaining and improving our spiritual, mental, social and physical health. The department of Health Ministry promotes good health and the prevention of ill health to help achieve this goal of wholeness.
