Consultations with Clergy
on Healing Ministry
with
Arthur L. Mardis

These consultations are designed to assist the development of healing ministries in the churches of participants. They have an added importance in light of the healing needs of persons as a result of the events of 09/11/01. These consultations will focus upon

• the concept of healing,
• the healing functions of the church,
• the role of clergy in the healing ministry,
• the perceptions, attitudes, and affirmations necessary to accept the role,
• the needs of congregations, and
• the development of support for healing ministries within congregations.

Consultations are available to individuals or small groups of clergy who are sincerely interested in healing and open to the healing potentials of their ministry. Consultations will have structure and purpose; however, the specific contents of each consultation will emerge from needs and perceptions of the participants.

These consultations are for persons in the ministry

• who have not previously conducted a ministry of healing,
• who believe that a healing ministry is an appropriate ministry for their church,
• who are interested in a healing ministry but have many reservations about beginning this form of ministry,
• who would like to establish a healing ministry as an integral ministry of their church,
• who are seeking to explore ways of defining and conducting a ministry of healing acceptable to their congregation,
• who are essentially open to their own healing in the exploration of a healing ministry,
• who would like to begin a healing ministry which is compatible with their present theological thinking.
