PARISH HEALING AND PRAYER MINISTRY


In our Church we have witnessed healing, both physical and emotional through prayer ministry, and miraculous healing through prayer requests. 


When we think of miracles, we often imagine stories from Biblical times or the lives of the Saints long ago. However, miracles still happen in the modern world, touching the lives of ordinary people every day. These are a few testimonies of prayers said from our Church over the past year:

Join us after Mass in the Chapel, 

Back in The New Year

Or by appointment.

We look forward to inviting you into this space with Jesus.


To ensure the privacy of others please wait in the Church until the person before you has finished being ministered to.

There is no need to book for healing and prayers after Mass.

The parish intends to grow this valuable ministry - please refer to the parish  newsletter for updates

‘You gave my dad so much peace when you visited him a few days before he died. He insisted that the Holy Spirit had come to visit him that day and he was overwhelmed…it was beautiful to witness and I will never forget it for as long as I live.’ 

(A home visit) 


'After a fall down the stairs I needed X-rays, I was covered in bruises and could hardly breathe or walk. After being prayed over to the Holy Spirit in the Church we heard my bones clicking into place and I could stand up and walk straight for the first time after falling. After two days I was completely healed’’.

(In Church prayer request)


‘‘I shouldn’t be here, I had cancer, I was surrounded by tubes and wires, and now I am well again’’.

(Distance prayer request)


You're Invited - Join us after Mass in the Chapel

MORE ABOUT THE HEALING MINISTRY WITHIN THE PARISH

What can you expect?


Healing is a gift from God.


The minister prays to the Holy Spirit for you and the rest is up to Our Lord. If nothing else, most people experience immense peace, however we have wit- nessed instant healing and healings taking place with continued prayer over a period of time. We look forward

to inviting you into this space with

Jesus.


WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT HEALING MINISTRY

When He sent out His Disciples to further His

 ministry, Jesus “gave them  power and authority to   drive out all demons and 

 to cure diseases, and sent them out to preach the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick”

 (Luke 9:1-2).
