Amy and “Are Any Among You Sick?”

Are Any Among You Sick?

"If any of you are suffering, they should pray. If any of you are happy, they should sing. If any of you are sick, they should call for the elders of the church, and the elders should pray over them, anointing them with oil in the name of the Lord. Prayer that comes from faith will heal the sick, for the Lord will restore them to health. And if they have sinned, they will be forgiven. For this reason, confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of the righteous person is powerful in what it can achieve." (James 5: 13-16)

"God restores us to health." Whether that health occurs on the spiritual plane, the psychological and emotional plane, or the physical plane, God is at work in us and through us as community in making that healing work palpable in our lives.

Each Wednesday during the Lenten season we will gather virtually for a Public Service of Healing. Click here for a bulletin for tonight's service and the Google Meet info.

Pray in community for your health, the health of those you love and care for, the health of the world and all that ails us as humanity, all that holds us back from flourishing in the fullness that God dreams for us.

If you are in need for private prayers for wholeness and health, please reach out to Amy for support and direction. Many find peace in the practice of confession during Lent. May God give you the resources you need to draw you deeper into wholeness this Lent. Amen.
