Our Team

Our health ministry team is led by our Faith Community Nurse, Mel Miller, BSN, RN and Kettering Adventist Church is a partnering congregation of the Kettering Health Network Faith Community Nursing & Health Ministry Program. Our team is composed of church members who are interested in enhancing the health of our congregation and bringing life abundant to our faith community as well as our larger community. It is not necessary for all members of the health ministry team to be health professionals as we value the variety of gifts that every member brings to this ministry.
