Healing Ministry

The Methodist Church in Ireland's involvement in the ministry of healing has a theological framework. It springs from what we believe about God and His will and purpose for humankind. We believe that His will is wholeness of body, mind and spirit for all people. Healing was central to the ministry of Jesus who commanded his followers to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to heal. The Ministry of Healing Committee commends the exercise of a healing ministry to every circuit and society.
