Healing & Anointing Service
Date: Last Sunday of the month
Time: Following 8:30 am and 10:30 am Sunday Services
Location: Sanctuary
In the United Methodist Church, healing and anointing are important ministries, though they are not considered sacraments in the same way as Baptism and Holy Communion. Instead, they are understood as sacramental acts—means of grace through which God’s presence, love, and healing power can be experienced.
Our church will hold the healing and anointing service (5-10 minutes) after each Sunday service on the last Sunday of the month. During healing and anointing, you may come forward to the altar rail, and the pastor may place hands on the head or shoulder and anoint with oil on the forehead in the sign of the cross. Or you may remain in the pew and pray for yourself and others. Or you may leave quietly for Coffee Hour.
If you have any questions about the healing and anointing service, please feel free to contact Pastor Lee. May the Lord be with you, touch you, and make you strong and well in body and spirit through healing and anointing! Amen.
