IndianaThousands of children, teens, and adults played with globs of fat, a diseased brain, and heart models at the Coronary Health Improvement Project (CHIP) booth at the Hamilton County 4-H Fair last summer. Hundreds of fair-goers had their blood pressure taken and received simple lifestyle suggestions for lowering blood pressure.
The Cicero (Ind.) Church members, who volunteered to help at the booth, experienced an exciting adventure as they met and helped booth visitors with their health concerns. They also passed out hundreds of copies of the book, The Passion of Love.
This outreach initiative was coordinated in preparation of a CHIP program that will begin in Cicero after the first of the year. The blessing and guidance of God has been seen constantly in this endeavor for Him.
