Thursday 19th January
'Deeper Healing Day'
10.00 am - 4.00 pm £30.00
Led by members of the Acorn Team
What is Deeper Healing and why is this day for me?
Deeper healing is the experience in which the Holy Spirit restores health to the deepest areas of our lives by dealing with the root cause of our hurt and pain.
Many of us continue to recycle or repeat hurts we have received over the years. A Deeper Healing Day enables us to be listened too and prayed with in order to bring release and peace through prayer.
During the morning each person sees two of the prayer ministry team for 45 minutes.
When you are not being seen you can simply enjoy the space.
You may want to read the notes you have been given and look up scriptures that may be helpful for you or just rest.
We will do our best to create a safe place, a quiet place, a place to assist you on your own healing journey.
You will never be asked to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable.
A Deeper Healing Day is not counselling but is an opportunity to listen to ourselves and God in a safe and welcoming place.
In the afternoon there is an opportunity for you to receive group prayer; some of the team may receive a scripture verse for you or helpful words but only you can tell if these words are relevant to your own situation.
The day closes with Holy Communion. If you feel you need more prayer we have our Tuesday Healing Service every week where you can come and see our Chaplain or ministry team for additional prayer support.
The day is designed to help you come to a place of peace and wholeness.
Lunch is included ~ refreshments available throughout the day.
