St. Francis of Assisi Parish, New Tafo-Akim Launches Volunteer Health Team to Promote Community Well-being

The Volunteer Health Team is spearheading an initiative to promote health education and awareness within the parish and neighboring communities. In a call to action, Rev. Fr. Noah Tseko emphasized the Church's role in fostering both the spiritual and physical well-being of its members.

"As a Church, we have a responsibility not only to nurture the spiritual lives of our members but also to care for their physical health," Rev. Fr. Noah Tseko stated.

The Church is actively seeking volunteers from various health professions, including doctors, nurses, pharmacists, nutritionists, and other professionals who are passionate about serving the community. This initiative offers a meaningful opportunity for health experts to use their skills and knowledge to make a tangible difference in the lives of those in need.

Team members will be engaged in activities such as delivering talks and presentations on key health topics like preventive care, healthy living, and disease management. In addition, volunteers may participate in health screening events, providing their expertise in areas such as checking vital signs, conducting blood tests, and offering medical guidance.

Rev. Fr. Noah Tseko also highlighted the importance of setting an example for healthy living. "Being part of this team means practicing what we preach—living healthy lifestyles and inspiring others in the community to do the same."

For those interested in joining the Volunteer Health Team, Rev. Fr. Noah Tseko encourages them to contact the Parish Priest or their Church executives. "Together, we can use our skills and knowledge to build a healthier and happier community," he concluded.
