Why Mental Health & Wellbeing?
Caring for people’s needs shows love and kindness to a suffering world.
Through both medicine and ministry, we can bring healing and comfort to people with illnesses of all kinds and those who are dealing with life-long conditions or disabilities. God cares about the wellbeing of a whole person – the body as well as the soul and in supporting this cause we bring essential care to those who need it. Whether it’s a focus on inclusivity, relief from pain and loneliness or essential research into various conditions, charities in this area provide an array of necessary support.
But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,” declares the Lord
Jeremiah 30:17
Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.
Psalm 30:2
Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day, or like vinegar poured on a wound, is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
Proverbs 25:20

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.
Mother Theresa
So here I sit … glad that I have not been healed on the outside, but glad that I have been healed on the inside.
Joni Earekson Tada
GOD is often (in some sense) nearer to us, and more effectually present with us, in sickness than in health.
