Dear Christian herbalist or natural health care seeker,

Greetings and blessings from the Christian Natural Health Network.

My name is Lou and I am the educational director for the network. I have served in Christian ministry and the health services for many years now so I can appreciate your enthusiasm and interest in learning more about God and His wonderful medicinal herb garden.

My grandmother first introduced me to the effectiveness of God's herbal medicine at an early age. I still remember going out to her garden to see her pick some yerba buena (spearmint) and to pray for me when I was ill. My grandmother loved God and she used His herbal blessings to the fullest - and at the Christian Natural Health Network, we want you to do the same.

My love for God's natural medicine is based on my faith in Jesus, His Word, and His faithfulness. When God, the Great Physician, created the herbs for medicine, He did it out of pure love for all people. Even the people who reject His message and offer of salvation benefit from the healing abundance of His natural herbal garden. But true eternal wholeness can only come by receiving the free gift of His Son, His Word, and His grace. This is the Good News that we must continue to share as Christian herbalists and health care givers.

I encourage you to continue to seek, knock, listen, and learn as you venture into His Way, His Truth, and His Life. Get right with God, be transformed by the renewing of your mind, and learn to properly and safely use His medicinal herb garden to help heal yourself and others.

May God richly bless you and keep you whole and healthy.

Sincerely in Christ Jesus,

Pastor Lou Garnica, CCH
