The United Church Healing Ministry
Healing Pathway is the healing ministry sanctioned by the United Church of Canada. Many congregations across Canada have these wonderful healing ministries. The foundation of the program lies in the tradition of healing within the Christian tradition. There are many Bible verses that describe laying on of hands and healing.
This energy and prayer based approach is founded in the understanding that healing comes from the Creator. Practitioners are trained to be the vessels of God’s healing love and energy to support the healing process in an individual. Healing sessions do not always involve physical contact between practitioner and receiver as the practitioner may just work in the energy field of the individual. A key consideration is that “healing” does not necessarily mean “curing”. Practitioners do not diagnose. The goal for practitioners is to be a vessel of God’s healing for the highest good of the individual- body, mind and spirit.
Practitioners attend training provided by the Healing Pathway Society. The program consists of four Phases offering information, healing sequences, meditations, guidelines and a Code of Ethics.
The Healing Pathway group at St. Andrew’s United Church aims to offer healing sessions once per month with a break during the summer months. The days and times vary depending on the needs of the practitioners and receivers. Please call Judy for an appointment: 778-412-1035.
Committee members include: Judy Fletcher, Alison MacLise, and Maureen Margetts.
