EVENT/CALENDER

Thompson's is working with the American Heart Association to create a city free of heart disease – a city where everyone can achieve the best possible health – We have started that work right here on the east side of Buffalo - Going Red for women. We believe women are the heart of our community. It is our vision to see women succeed in life without heart disease. It is our mission to make the healthy choice the easy choice. It is our goal to make prevention the new prescription. Go Red for women with us. See our event schedule (coming soon) and join the movement.

First Place For Health believes in the power of Christ to ignite radical, transformative change in our lives, which includes our physical health. Though the journey is never easy, we are committed to helping others pursue whole-person wellness by looking to Christ as our ultimate sustainer. We keep His Word at the core of our identity and cultivate a dedicated community defined by truth and grace.

Who Chooses First Place for Health?

Lonely? Connect with a Community of friends who understand and accept you, and who will support you in achieving your goals.

Stuck? Discover Freedom from old patterns, hidden stumbling blocks, and self-defeating inner messages.

Ashamed? Unlock the Truth about who you are and who you are meant to be (they aren’t as far apart as you may currently think–you are wonderfully made).

Hopeless? Renew your Faith in what IS possible–it’s your time and your turn–dare to believe again!

Come to lose weight.  Gain freedom in healthy living with a restored heart, renewed mind, sold out soul and a transformed body.

We are free from the chains of the world that bind us—whether that’s a number on a scale or the expectations with which we burden ourselves—and First Place For Health believes in living in freedom. We don’t do perfection. Instead, we trust Christ as the source of our joy and peace, walking hand-in-hand through the peaks and valleys of our road to physical wellness–however that may look–together.

Thompson’s will be sponsoring – With Every Heartbeat Is Life. It’s a heart health program created especially for African Americans by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This program is designed to help people build skills to make practical, lasting changes to help fight heart disease through information about tobacco cessation, exercise, healthy eating, and diabetes. Upon completion it is anticipated that participants will teach family, friends, and congregations how to create a healthier community. The classes meet once a week of 11 weeks at Thompson’s Food Market (On the 2nd floor). Day and time will be posted on our website.
