Health ministry services may be provided by a professional or layperson. These services include visiting the homebound, providing meals for families in crisis or when a family member returns home after hospitalization, participating in prayer circles, serving "healthy heart" meals, or hold-ing regular grief support groups. Conducting worship services in occupational areas, providing nursing care, and participating in mission trips are not typical roles of a health ministry.
