Why Do We Need a Healing Mass?
All Masses offer healing. Then why do we need a special healing Mass?
There are several types of Masses to assist the various needs of the faithful. The healing Mass is a Votive Mass. Meaning, it is offered for a specific purpose. This also means that most of the attendees are united by a common desire – healing. It’s the same reason why we have a different Mass for a wedding, a baptism, or even a funeral.
What Kind of Healing Can I Expect?
Before anything else, we must not forget that it’s God who is doing the healing. The priests and prayer teams are just instruments. They can intercede for you, but the healing power of the Mass comes from God himself. As Jesus’ said to the woman who touched his cloak, her faith has healed her. In the same way, our strong faith in God can get us through whatever the trial.
A healing can mean different things for each of us. The Mass does not just provide relief from physical ailments. It also heals us mentally, emotionally and, most of all, spiritually.
