The ministry of wholeness and healing is not something extraordinary, but a deepening and development of what is always at the centre of the Gospel.

"The Healing Ministry is Jesus’ ministry entrusted to us, always to be exercised with reverence, love and compassion. The guiding principle is to recognise the presence of God in those receiving this ministry and honour his presence in them”
