About the Ministry

A Non Profit Health Ministry

Faith and Health Connection is a nonprofit Christian health ministry registered in the state of South Carolina. The ministry was founded by Dale Fletcher in 2005.

What We Do

We help transform lives by teaching people how to apply Biblical truths and principles, along with medically-sound guidelines, to achieve whole person health. We do this through:

  • A content-rich website
  • A strong encouraging presence on social media
  • Christian Health and Wellness Coaching
  • Growing and equipping disciples in our
    • Understanding the Faith and Health Link Workshop
    • Faith and Health Ambassador Course and our
    • PathWay 2 Wholeness Bible Study
  • Leading workshops and retreats
  • Advising pastors and church leadership about congregational health ministries

Read our Mission, Vision and Beliefs and our Statement of Faith.

A Research and Evaluation Opportunity

We are actively seeking opportunities to partner with academic institutions or research-oriented individuals/organizations to conduct an evaluation of PathWay 2 Wholeness, a unique faith-based health education initiative. We believe this program merits recognition as an evidence-based intervention that improves health status including obesity, diabetes, blood pressure and other key outcomes.

If you’re interested in in learning more about the evaluation strategy and plans for this program and exploring this opportunity, please contact Dale Fletcher though the Contact Page.

Partner With Us

We invite you to participate in our work of transforming lives. If you have an interest in participating in the ministry or contributing some time and your talents, please contact us.

Your financial support will help make our initiatives more affordable and assist us in expanding the ministry.




Dale Fletcher, M.S., Founder

Dale FletcherDale Fletcher is the Founder and Executive Director of the ministry. He has a heart for helping people live a healthy and abundant life. He enjoys applying his formal wellness education and insight from personal life experiences in his role as a ministry leader, faith and health consultant, speaker, retreat leader, and health coach.

The Christian faith is his compass for how he lives life. Dale’s passion is teaching and coaching others on how to integrate a mind, body and spirit approach to healthy living from a biblical perspective. Dale has been a speaker for many government, corporate and civic organizations and faith-based groups. A husband to Janice and a proud dad of four young adults, Dale has a love of the outdoors and fishing and enjoys brisk walking to stay in shape and manage his stress.  He resides north of Spartanburg, SC in the town of Boiling Springs, SC.

Dale’s Philosophy on Whole Person Health

Our spirit, mind and body are inseparable. What we believe, what we think and how we behave affects each component of our life. Greater wholeness can be achieved when we integrate a spirit, mind, and body approach to managing the stress in our lives. Dale Fletcher is particularly fascinated by the connection between one’s physical health and their spiritual health as the research suggests that the more one’s lifestyle lines up with their spiritual beliefs the more whole and healthy that person can be.
