Members of the Central Apostolic Faith Mission Health Ministry Team were out in the community  taking blood pressures in the East Charlotte region of the Queen City.  Members of the community were offered free blood pressure screening so they could "know their numbers" The CAFM Health Ministry  Team will be partnering with several local businesses to support the community and promote healthy living choices.   Their mission is to teach the public what their blood pressure range should be and offer useful information about maintaining a healthy lifestyle.   On May 2 this team  was able to set up at  Food Lion  #1365.  They look forward to serving the local community at other area businesses in the near future.  If your East Charlotte business or organization would like to have a blood pressure screening station set up for a local event  please contact Central Apostolic Faith Mission.

Your Destiny Learning Center is Supporting Academic Success in East Charlotte

The recent school report cards  released  by CMS  has many parents  concerned about  how well their children are doing in local schools compared to students across our nation.   The scores have not been satisfactory for quite some time.

Below are some of the reported  EOG passing scores/stats from  local Elementary schools

As you can see there is MUCH work to be done!!  The staff at Your Destiny Academic Academy have developed a program that leads to academic success for  East Charlotte students.  The staff report that 98% of the students enrolled at Your Destiny Academic Academy are on the A/B honor roll.   This is certainly a stark contrast to the CMS reported EOG scores.  

Parents of local East Charlotte CMS schools can find out more about this program at the Your Destiny Academic Academy Webpage.  They offer a variety of academic support eviroments including an  before and afterschool programs, summer camp and tutoring.
