If I Could Heal Workshops


Our Vision
We equip ordinary Christians for the everyday work of healing, through teaching and practice.

Our Mission
Throughout church history Christians have healed the sick and suffering, in response to Jesus’ instruction: “Preach, teach, and heal.”

Leading workshops, retreats and classes, we bear witness to the good news that God still heals today through ordinary people.

We offer scripturally based teaching and opportunities to practice accessible styles of healing prayer. These methods require no spectacular manifestations of the Spirit’s presence, no miraculous abilities, but a simple offering of ourselves as we are, vessels of God’s love and power.

We believe that God is always present to us, always offering healing, by the power of the Spirit’s presence within us and among us. The work of healing is the effort to receive wholeness as it is offered to us in the present moment.

We rejoice in God’s invitation to participate in the healing ministry of Jesus Christ.

If you could heal one person, whom would you heal? When your desire has settled on one person, find something that reminds you of them.

This symbol will be used in some of the exercises.
