Faith and Health Ministries

Guided by Faith, Committed to Serve

Norton Healthcare’s commitment to care for the health and well-being of the community is grounded in values held by our faith founders. Those values still guide how we serve others today. 

The purpose of Norton Faith & Health Ministries is to honor the faith heritage of our founding churches — the Episcopal Church, The United Methodist Church and the United Church of Christ — and the Presbyterian and Roman Catholic churches, which also are part of our faith history. In honoring this heritage, we serve people of all beliefs and build relationships with faith communities to promote the connection between faith, healing and wellness.
