Healing Service

19

Healing Service

Our March Healing Service is March 19th at 4:00 pm.

Healing is about so much more than just relief from a physical sickness or ailment. Healing can be psychological, emotional, spiritual…it is the experience of the restoration of wholeness that comes to us through God’s grace and often the support of community. Healing isn’t always instantaneous. Sometimes healing is a journey to wholeness that can take some time and be full of twists and turns. Perhaps coming to the service on March 19 might be a first step. Please join us for a time of music, prayers, reflection, anointing, and communion.

The intention or focus for this month’s service is bereavement and grief.
