Dear Viewers,
 Celebrate All Saints Day and All Souls Day November 1st and 2nd. Peace and healing to all in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. November is the month of National Alzhiemers Awareness and The Great American Smoke Out. Let us focus on the concept of healing. Jer. 33:6, "Behold, I will treat and assuage the city's wounds; I will heal them, and reveal to them an abundance of lasting peace." Globally, we all need healing. |

Webster's dictionary defines heal as to make well or healthy again or to mend a wound or cure a disease.
According to The Catholic Dictionary, Hardon, 2004, the ministry of healing reflects the ministry of Christ.
The ministry of Christ, according to the gospels, during his public life healed many and cured the people
of many diseases such as leprosy deafness, blindness, and paralytics. Christians have always been
concerned with the health of the mind, body, and soul.
Some of the ways we can minister are: visiting the sick in hospitals, at homes, in nursing homes, helping the victims of war, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, fires, the poor, developing a prayer life, attending the church of your choice, stopping smoking, healthy eating and drinking, exercising 3 times a week, and seeing your health care provider. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, "May the God of peace himself make you perfectly Holy, and may you entirely, spirit body, and soul, be preserved blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Please read Dt. 26:1-4. | |
