A CONFERENCE
PRESENTED BY
THE DIOCESE OF
SPRINGFIELD
More Than Words….Reclaiming
the Vitality of the Early Church
My message and my preaching
were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the
Spirit's power, so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but
on God's power. ( I Corinthians 2:4-5 )
Conference Overview
The Early Church was VITAL.
It was filled with excitement and wonder. The Apostles proclaimed a
powerful gospel message that was demonstrated with acts of healing and
transformation. This conference looks at how we can “reclaim” a similar
excitement today. We will focus primarily on the grace of God for
healing as expressed on our sacrament of Holy Unction. The teachings
will be followed by practicums where participants can learn first hand.
