Senior Health Promotion Campaign Held at Shincheonji Yeongdeungpo Church

On January 28, 2026, Shincheonji Church of Jesus Yeongdeungpo Church carried out a health promotion campaign for senior members aged 70 and above, providing on-site medical checkups and personalized health consultations during the winter season.

The campaign took place at Yeongdeungpo Church and was organized by the Welfare and Health Department of the Bartholomew Tribe. This marked the third session of the program, following similar initiatives held in August and September of the previous year.

Providing Accessible Medical Support During Winter

According to organizers, the campaign was designed to support elderly members who may face difficulties visiting hospitals during periods of cold weather. With winter conditions increasing health risks for seniors, the church aimed to provide accessible preventive care within a familiar environment.

A total of 35 senior members participated in the program, which ran for approximately two hours. Professional medical staff conducted the following services in sequence:

  • Completion of health screening questionnaires

  • Blood pressure measurement

  • Blood glucose testing

  • Basic cognitive screening for dementia

  • Lifestyle and dietary consultations

Health questionnaires were structured in a Q&A format, allowing participants to record their current health status, medical history, and family health background. Blood pressure readings were taken directly by medical personnel using electronic devices to assess potential hypertension risks.

Personalized Consultations and Preventive Care

Following medical checks, participants received one-on-one consultations focused on daily habits, nutrition, and overall health management. Organizers noted that many attendees arrived with concerns but left feeling reassured after receiving clear explanations and guidance.

To support comfort during the winter season, warm sleep socks were also distributed to participants as part of the campaign.

One attendee, a 73-year-old woman from Seoul, shared that visiting hospitals often requires advance reservations and long waiting times, adding that receiving medical guidance directly at the church made the experience more convenient and reassuring.

Another participant, an 80-year-old woman from Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, expressed gratitude for the detailed care provided and said the consultation motivated her to improve her diet to better manage blood sugar levels.

Continuing Health Education Initiatives

A representative from the Welfare and Health Department stated that many seniors initially arrive with anxiety but gain peace of mind after receiving consultations. The representative added that similar health-support programs will continue throughout the year to help senior members maintain healthy and stable faith lives.

The department also plans to expand educational initiatives, building on previous programs such as CPR training, to provide practical medical knowledge applicable to daily life.

A Community-Based Approach to Senior Well-Being

The health promotion campaign at Yeongdeungpo Church reflects an ongoing effort by the Bartholomew Tribe to integrate faith, care, and practical support. By offering preventive healthcare services within the community, the church continues to address the real-life needs of its aging members while strengthening a culture of mutual care and responsibility.
