An ecumenical Service of Healing is offered every Thursday at

There are several learning opportunities
this summer and fall, please plan to attend any or all of them. You do not have
to be a member of the Order of St. Luke to
attend the 10:30 a.m. Thursday Healing Service or one of the monthly meetings.
Visitors are always welcome. If you think you might attend one of the talks, please call Mary at 784-4386. We
would like to have enough chairs set up and enough food.
Beginning Thursday, July 11, 2013, immediately following
the 10:30 a.m. Healing Service at 11:45, please join us for a brown-bag lunch
discussion of the Book of Ephesians. This is a three week – July 11, 18 and 25 – study. We will
discussion two chapters each week. If you forget your lunch, please come
anyway. There is always plenty to eat. We will meet in the All Saints Library.
Beginning Wednesday, July 24, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. the Rufus
Womble Chapter of the Order of St. Luke is pleased to offer a six-week
immersion Bible study of “The Healing Miracles of Jesus” at River Road United
Methodist Church, 8800 River Road, Richmond, Va. 23229.
This special DVD version of the 26
healing miracles of Jesus Christ was produced and is led by OSL National
American Board of Director the Rev. Josh Acton. This study is the foundational
training course for those interested in becoming members of OSL, or every
Christian interested in the healing ministry.
In this Bible study, you will dig
deeply into scripture, with time to reflect on the meanings and implications of
these miracles, as you become thoroughly familiar with Christ’s methods and
procedures.
We are planning to present this
same study at another church beginning January 8, 2014. When we receive
confirmation, we will post the information on this web site.
On Friday, March 7, 2014, 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, March 8 beginning at 9:00 a.m. we welcome the Rev. John Rice,
president of the North American Board of the Order of St. Luke and Director of
Region 3 as our mission speaker. “Surrendering to Abba’s Love” is the theme of
this mission. Detailed information will be posted to this site this fall.
