FAME Church Incorporates Exercise in Worship Experience

Church leaders and members of the FAME congregation celebrated the importance of a healthy mind, body and spirit recently by participating in energy-filled gospel aerobics. The FAME church is a long time advocate of improving health for members of the South Los Angeles community and is a leading church innovator in combining exercise with worship.
“One of the primary goals of the church is to help all of God’s children to live better,” said Reverend Dr. John J. Hunter. “African-Americans suffer some of the highest rates of obesity as well as diet-related preventable diseases. As a church we feel a responsibility to bring this message to the community. We invite everyone to join us in living longer, healthier lives.”

First AME Church of Los Angeles held a special service Sunday, July 18 celebrating Mandela Day 2010 in partnership with the Nelson Mandela Foundation. Parishioners heard words of thanks from Mandela via a special video tribute and celebrated in song, prayer, and by signing the Nelson Mandela Day Pledge.

“We encouraged the FAME congregation to support Mandela Day 2010 by participating in a series of volunteer activities, and to sign a pledge to give 67 minutes of volunteer time to symbolize over 67 years of Mandela’s extraordinary service to social causes,” said the Reverend Dr. John J. Hunter. “We are thrilled by the participation and dedication of our parishioners and encourage the entire community to continue to honor Mandela by volunteering and helping in their neighborhoods.”
