Healing Prayer is offered the second Sunday of each month at the 9:00 and 11:15 am Eucharist
Why is this practice offered?
- Praying for healing has been part of the Christian community from its earliest days
- Brings to life an important ministry of Jesus.
- Witnesses to our belief that God offers healing, wholeness and reconciliation for all of us.
What can I expect?
When you come, the healing minister will greet you and ask you what you wish to pray for. In St. Aidan’s Chapel, you may kneel or stand as you wish. If you are in the back of the nave by the crucifix, you will be standing.

The minister may ask if they can put their hands on your shoulders or head. If you do not wish them to – just let them know. No big deal. The practice of laying hands on another in prayer is part of our Christian tradition, but not essential for us to experience the healing love of God.
Each minister has their own style, but all try to mirror your words as they pray with you for what you have asked.
What can I ask about?
Anything that is on your heart – for yourself or for others. Nothing is too small or ordinary.
