Advocate Community Ministry

Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who are of a fearful heart, "Be strong and do not fear!" Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the speechless sing for joy. For waters shall break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.
   —Isaiah 35: 4-6

I have come that they might have life... and have it abundantly!
   —John 10:10

The Community Ministry office of Advocate Health Care seeks to make real the vision of wholistic healing—abundant life for all—by collaborating with community agents and congregations of all denominations and religious affiliations to address the issues that impact people's wellness.

These partnerships further Advocate Health Care's commitment to serving people wholistically across the continuum of their health needs—from the promotion of health in its broadest sense to the response when illness occurs.
