2026 CNH Church Worker Wellness Initiative

“What if caring for your own well-being could strengthen your ministry, your joy, and your daily walk with God?”

That’s the heart behind our new CNH District wellness initiative, Healthy Living, Healthy Serving. In 2026, we’re inviting every church worker to take simple, meaningful steps toward physical, mental, and spiritual health so that as we serve others, we do so from a place of strength, not exhaustion.

In partnership with Concordia Plans, the CNH District is launching a church worker wellness initiative for 2026 called, "Healthy Living, Healthy Serving" based on Romans 12:1, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship."

Our goal for the year will be to increase the number and status of those individuals who use Vitality® through Concordia Plans or whatever similar program you have with your church or school's health plan. This way, we can measure how we are doing individually and as a district. Starting in January, we will have some challenges (with prizes) and other incentives to increase healthy habits among all of the church workers in the CNH District.

For now, please take the opportunity to sign up for Vitality® or whatever program your health plan has in place and stay tuned for more information in January! This will help us measure how well we are doing as a District.

For information on signing up for Vitality®, go to Getting Started with Vitality. Here also is a quick video if you need additional help. If you have any questions, contact Joel Wahlers at the CNH District Office.
