Morning Class

 

  

Our mission is to enhance physical stewardship of our bodies through exercise; and to heighten Christian fellowship, and build relationships through contact in an informal setting.

In I Corinthians 9:19-20, Paul states  "Do you know that your body is a temple of the Holy spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?  You are not your own: you were bought at a price.  Therefore honor God with your body."  One of the ways we can honor God with our bodies is by eating right and exercising.  When our bodies are well taken care of and treated with respect, it becomes easier to be spiritually disciplined and maintain a positive, spiritual, and healthy lifestyle.

 FITNESS MINISTRY LEADERS....

Kim Reeves has worked in the fitness field for over 15 years. She had a background of gymnastics and cheerleading, that originally sparked her interest in pursing a career in fitness.  As a college cheerleader she was required to attend fitness classes 3 times a week, and decided to get certified to be an instructor.  She has instructed courses in both the collegiate and recreational settings.  Kim holds a MEd in Health/Physical Education from The University of Central OK, and a BS in Health Promotions/Community Wellness from Oklahoma State University.  She is a Nationally certified group fitness instructor through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA).  Kim and her husband have two young children, and have been attending FBC for over 10 years.  She is very thankful the Lord blessed her with a husband that has been involved and supportive, of both the vision and growth of this ministry.  "I am amazed at how the Lord continues to unfold his plans for my life by using  prior experiences to prepare me for such a time as this.  I'm so thankful to be called to such a rewarding ministry, and enjoy helping  people experience positive changes as they work to achieve the goals they set".

"Our Sunday School class is where I became friends with Kim and begged to be in her class.  I'm so thankful God has put her in my life.  In the last two years I have realized the great importance of being physically fit in my life, and my families' lives.  I look forward to helping others make changes in their lives as well".

I have been part of this class for about a year and a half now.  When I first started I could barely keep up and couldn't even do a real push-up!  I now really enjoy the challenge of the class and can do at least 25 push ups in a row!  I have lost 15 lbs and feel better than I ever remember feeling.  I did the commit to fit program last fall and it really made a difference.  I am so thankful that Kim introduced me to this new way of eating, it's been really easy for me to follow and I feel I have made it a permanent part of my life style. This class was great for me as a beginner but  it still gives me the challenge and push I need as I get stronger. It's really fun to work out with friends and progress together.
