SOZO HEALTH MINISTRY

Patchwork’s Sozo* Health Ministry began in January, 2015 (*Sozo is a New Testament Greek word meaning both “to heal” and “to save”). The ministry’s motto is, “Yes, we’ll take a look at that.”

The Health Ministry meets with clients, educates people about their conditions and medications, provides basic first aid and nursing care, advocates for clients to get the resources they need for their health, and provides pastoral care for spiritual health.

Sozo Health Ministry is not a clinic and does not diagnose ailments or prescribe medication.
