Seventh-day Adventist Church walk in Middletown will focus on health
MIDDLETOWN — Middletown's Seventh-day Adventist Church plans — again — this September, to sponsor a 5-kilometer walk through Middletown, an event the pastor views as fostering an important part of the church's mission by encouraging good health.
The event is Sept. 22, "Let's Move Day," a day Seventh-day Adventist churches nationwide try to get people involved in physical activity, said Pastor Victor Dyman. Last year, they sponsored a health expo in the church parking lot as part of the event; this year, he said, they hope to hold a bigger one in Thrall Park. He said he wants to raise people's awareness of health risks in general, particularly of diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.
