Pastor Bishop Joseph Futch's Journey: June



Pastor Bishop Joseph Futch, First Lady Gwendolyn Futch, and members of the St. Joseph Tabernacle Church made a commitment to live healthier lifestyles.  They wanted to learn more about the tools needed to make healthy lifestyle choices a part of their daily lives.  They had heard about Choosing Health! and inquired about the possibility of hosting a health rally at their church. They made a decision to join this group’s initiative with the Healthy Lifestyle Committee of the Capital Area Health Alliance.  After several months of planning and preparation, their congregation welcomed participants to the 2nd annual Spring/Summer Choosing Health! Rally Saturday, June 8, 2013. 
At the Rally, Bishop Futch began to walk the talk!  He participated in the Playmakers Good Form Walking Clinic – learning three important techniques:  improving posture, taking proper strides, and learning how to lean.  Learning these techniques helps you to walk lighter, easier, and healthier.  Bishop shared his goal to lose 100 pounds; he plans to attend the Walking In Our Community Series; and he invited us to share in his journey.
