​Evening Prayers for Healing
Suspended until further notice.

A quiet, reflective service (homily and hymns included) with voluntary stations for those who desire personal prayers for healing. 
 
Jesus’ ministry included preaching, teaching and healing. One of the methods that Jesus used was touch, often referred to as the laying on of hands. When Jesus commissioned his disciples, he told them to do likewise. 

Anointing is a sacramental act of the Church and is available at this service. Until the twelfth century, anointing was a regular part of church services and done by clergy and lay people. If a person was too sick to come to church the oil was taken to the home and prayers were said for healing. There is no restriction on the frequency with which you can receive either the laying on of hands or anointing.
