The mission of the Church's Ministry of Healing is to bring Christ's healing presence to those in need; in body, mind or spirit. The ministry aims to promote, develop and practice Christ's healing ministry in accordance with Biblical authority; using prayer, laying on of hands, counselling, anointing, preaching, teaching and healing practice among all people, to advance the Kingdom of God, and the objectives are to restore a proper relationship between God and His people, to encourage the ministry of prayer and sacrament, to offer Christian listening, counselling and support for the anxious, the sick and the dying; and to provide the ministry of deliverance; working in harmony with the medical and caring professions.
