  • What is Healing Prayer?

    Healing prayer comes in many forms. At Good Shepherd and the Episcopal and Anglican Tradition, we center healing around the Eucharist. It is through the consumption of the body and blood that we remember the kind of Resurrected Jesus we worship. A Jesus who came back with the Stigmata, the wounds on the crucifixion on hands, feet, side, and head. We believe in miracles, but we know they do not necessarily come in the forms we anticipate.

  • Is there a catch?

    Absolutely not. Come when you can; don't come when you can't. Come late; leave early. No pressure, no judgment (the world offers plenty of those two things).

    You are free to come exactly as you are. The readings will prompt different questions for each of us; so, ask away or just listen. There are no stupid questions.

    All are Welcome!
