November Health Initiatives
At Shiloh Baptist Church in Chester, PA, we are dedicated to supporting health and well-being within our community. This November, we are spotlighting important health awareness initiatives aimed at prevention, early detection, and support for those impacted by specific health conditions. From Bladder Health Month to Lung Cancer Awareness and National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, each initiative brings critical resources, information, and support opportunities. By raising awareness about these conditions, we hope to empower our congregation and the wider community to take proactive steps toward health. For those looking to learn more or get involved, several organizations are offering valuable resources and events throughout November. Let’s take this opportunity to unite in raising awareness and extending compassion to those affected.
