Month's Health Tip
(Please feel free to

SPOTLIGHT ON:
First United Methodist Church, Marquette
First United Methodist Church recently opened their doors to community members enrolled in PATH classes (Personal Action Towards Health). People from around the area joined together once a week for 6 weeks to learn different ways to deal with living with a chronic health condition such as diabetes. People shared ideas, encouragement and support with one another. UPDON would like to say "Thank You!" to First Church for making a difference in the lives of these people simply by opening their doors for PATH.
