Retreat — Dr. Mary Healy
Dr. Mary Healy will conduct an all-day retreat at St. Francis of Assisi Parish, Bend, OR.
Theme: Encountering Jesus: A Call to Holiness, Healing, and Mission.
Dr. Healy is a Catholic theologian and an international speaker. She teaches sacred scripture at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, Michigan. Her main interests include faith healing, evangelization, and Catholic spirituality. Dr. Healy was one of the first women appointed by Pope Francis in 2014 to the Pontifical Biblical Commission.
Deacon Steve McGlone, who is part of the planning committee at the parish, is asking us to join his prayer team and pray for this event from today until September 21st. Please join in this effort. Attached is the Deacon’s prayer ministry description — Prayer Warrior Job Description. You don’t have to respond to them — just pray.
Jackie Morgan, WOCCR Team, recently said: “I saw the result of many people praying in advance of an event earlier this year when the John Paul II conference on Healing the Whole person came to Portland and several other arterial locations. Our Lady of Lavang was packed. I would say close to 1500 people, that does not include the secondary locations and the streaming.”
