Healing Ministry

"The Lord will help him, on his bed of pain.  He will bring him back from sickness to health." (Ps. 41:3)


Healing of body is splendid and reviving grace of God, which brings redemption to the world.  Jesus paid the price of our healing as the Scriptures plainly teach.  Following the foot prints of Jesus Christ the Divine Healer, the nun-sisters participating in His Healing Ministry empower the weak and the sick, feel them loved, find them the hope and unleash their potential...
