Healing Ministry

Our Ministry's task is to help you to be healed, reconciled, and nourished spiritually. In union with Christ, you may be strengthened to share His work in your parish communities. In turn, you help build up the Mystical Body of Christ in the Diocese of Arlington. Clergy and laity alike unite to take seriously the call of Jesus to heal the whole person spiritually, emotionally, and physically. We are not the healers, but just the instruments of the healing power of Jesus Christ.

Our service begins with the celebration of the Eucharist. In faith we receive the Greatest Healer into our bodies and souls, trusting that we will be nourished and healed in all areas of our lives. Then each person is invited to be prayed with individually, by the laying of hands and an anointing with blessed oil. This is not the anointing of the sick. Priest confessors are available for the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
