Reality Ministries is local Christian-based organization that especially wants to reflect the heart of Jesus for those who are disenfranchised and marginalized due to poverty, violence, and lack of opportunity, as well as people with special needs. They are investigating the possibilities of ministering to orphans, foster kids, and the incarcerated. Their desire is to begin with “the least of these” – young people who are overlooked, ignored, voiceless and otherwise on the fringes of societal significance and ministry outreach.
Their starting point with young people who are on the margins will be complemented by their efforts on the other side of the spectrum, with those who are more privileged and entitled. In the teenage world racial, social, educational, intellectual and physical boundaries are too easily left unchallenged. In Reality Ministries they anticipate bringing
their young friends together to break down these barriers in constructive ways that speak of the Kingdom of God.
How exactly do they do this? It begins with strong leadership. Their leaders are committed to the Biblical concept of “going deep with a few,” a principle that applies to evangelism as well as to discipleship. When a Reality leader develops a strong circle of influence with his or her young friends, the leader will be able to shepherd them in positive directions and across intimidating thresholds. All of their programming events are geared to assist in this process. |

ActivEdge is not a health club or a fitness center in the conventional sense. Every person that walks in will be tied to a personal training program of a suitable level that is tailored to fit their needs and their budget, with guidance and assistance throughout. Large health clubs are filled with people who feel lost and disconnected.
At ActivEdge, you only have two jobs: SHOW UP, WORK HARD.
ActivEdge offers both private one-on-one and semi-private or small group personal training. They also have several Pilates, Yoga, and Fitness classes throughout the week to accommodate all schedules in the morning, evening, and weekends. Since they offer personal training at varying levels to fit your lifestyle and price range, over 95% of ActivEdge clients continue once they finish with their first training program and several of their members have been with them since the grand opening.
In addition to all these services, ActivEdge has established Physical Therapy and Massage Therapy departments. Founder Brian Diaz heads the Physical Therapy department specializing in sports and orthopedic rehabilitation utilizing a blend of hands-on manual therapy and soft tissue mobilization techniques, functional movements and challenging cross-training and preventive programs. Including his education from a top-ranked physical therapy program at The University of Iowa, he has picked up several skills from conferences and clinics including active and passive myofascial release and use of “cold laser” infrared light technology to assist in patient recovery. High-level athletes are also instructed in advanced agility and sport-specific drills. |
