05/01/2011 - From Pastor Mithelman
Welcome to our new Wellness Ministry Coordinator!
I am pleased to announce that Sandy LaBlanc, long-time member of St. John’s, has agreed to serve St. John’s as the Wellness Ministry Coordinator. This is a non-stipendiary position, and Sandy will work 2 days/week and Sunday mornings.
The Wellness Ministry Coordinator will work closely with our Health Ministry Team to promote wellness of mind, body, and spirit for the members and friends of St. John’s. Responsibilities of the Wellness Ministry Coordinator will include visitation ministry, development of an intercessory prayer group and other affinity groups, and education and coordination of healing ministers.
Sandy is a rostered Associate in Ministry in the ELCA. She has served the ELCA for many years, most recently as the Director of Rural Networking & Resourcing for the ELCA. (Downsizing in the ELCA structure eliminated support for rural ministries in 2010.) Sandy has Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) training through Iowa Methodist and is excited to join our staff and serve St. John’s.
Welcome, Sandy!
