Every first Wednesday of the month, our Shadow of the Cross Prayer Service is a Healing Service led by George Morrison.

     Spiritual healing is God's work of offering persons balance, harmony, and wholeness of body, mind, spirit, and relationship through confession, forgiveness, and reconciliation. The New Testament records that Jesus himself healed the estranged and sick and sent out his disciples on ministries of healing. James 5:14-16a calls us also to pray for and anoint the sick, that they may be healed.

     All healing is of God. The Church's healing ministry in no way detracts from the gifts God gives through medicines. It is no substitute for either medicine or the proper care of one's health. Rather, it adds to our total resources for wholeness.

     God does not promise that we shall be spared suffering but does promise to be with us in our suffering. Trusting that promise, we are enabled to recognize God's sustaining presence in pain, sickness, injury, and estrangement.

     Likewise, God does not promise that we will be cured of all illnesses: and we all must face the inevitability of death. A service of Healing is not necessarily a service of curing, but provides an atmosphere in which healing can happen. The greatest healing of all is the reunion or reconciliation of a human being with God. When this happens, physical healing sometimes occurs, mental and emotional balance is often restored, spiritual health is enhanced, and relationships are healed. For the Christian, the basic purpose of spiritual healing is to renew and strengthen one's relationship with the living Christ.

     We invite you to join us for our Healing Service. We offer anointing with oil and intercessory prayer as well as setting for a closer personal relationship with Christ.
