Gardner Joins Conference

ALBUQUERQUE – It is with great pleasure that we introduce and welcome Robert Gardner, M.D., as the new health ministries coordinator of the Texico Conference. Gardner is a graduate of Wayne State University School of Medicine and has specialized in internal medicine for 35 years. He is currently a member of the Rio Rancho Seventh-day Adventist Church and is a champion for promoting a healthy lifestyle and spiritual life, which is central to the Adventist health message.

“Health ministries is a vital part of the mission of the Adventist Church and we are grateful and excited that God has led Gardner to the Texico Conference. We look forward to having him on our departmental team and working with him in the area of health and temperance,” said Texico Conference President Lee-Roy Chacon. As health ministries coordinator, Gardner will be assisting in planning conference-wide health and temperance trainings, promote health events for the community, and will help support local church health ministry directors throughout the Texico Conference.
