World Day of the Sick—
31st Anniversary

The Healing Christ Ministry invites you to pray for all who are ill on this special day, the 31st Annual World Day of the Sick, on Saturday, February 11, 2023.

Initiated by Pope John Paul II in 1993, he asked all believers to seek "a special time of prayer and sharing, of offering one's suffering for the good of the Church and of reminding everyone to see in his/her sick brother or sister the face of Christ who, by suffering, dying, and rising, achieved the salvation of mankin."

We are called as a community to manifest God's love and mercy for those suffering; people we know and people we do not know. We invite you to take time in your busy day to connect with our Good Shepherd community and our global community to request healing in prayer through Our Lady of Lourdes to the Healing Christ on Saturday, February 11.

The Healing Touch for Self-Care Workshop is scheduled for that day. In addition, there will be healing sessions on Monday, February 13, for anyone interested. Visit our webpage to learn more about our Healing Touch for Self-Care Workshop and how to register ►
