Anastasia13 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Do people actually get healed at healing Masses? How much value is there in attending one of those compared to another Mass when you already pray/asked a few people to pray for you?

cappie Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I have experienced at least 2 people being healed during Mass specifically after being anointed. One was a religious sister who had to wear a brace on her back, she removed it and returned 12 months later to the church to give testimony, still able to walk without any assistance. There have been many books written on the topic one such is quoted below: Mary Ann Cortes, a manic depressive, after seventeen years of treatment enjoyed no improvement but was healed through the Mass. This is her account. I am coming to know that the Eucharist is the greatest healing sacrament and that every Mass is a healing service. For seventeen years I was in and out of every mental hospital in the region of New Orleans, Louisiana. I was diagnosed as manic depressive and given almost every treatment available to psychiatric patients. The doctors gave up hope of my recovering my mental health, and doomed me to a life of mood-altering drugs. When I went to bed at night I was afraid of waking up to another day of terror. After I was baptized in the Holy Spirit and began to attend healing Masses, I became mentally, emotionally and physically well. Today I am a new person in Christ. I’m not afraid of the morning anymore. In each Mass I unite all that I am with Jesus’ sacrifice. In that union with Him I receive into my being the risen life of Jesus, which transforms me more and more. I identify with Him and receive His life. The more I actively participate in the Mass, the more real He becomes to me. Jesus Himself enters into me and heals from the inside. (Taken from Healing Through the Mass pages 3-4 by Robert DeGrandis, published and copyright 1992 by Resurrection Press Every Mass can be a healing Mass however as I said before the "Healing Masses" have a particular focus e.g. healing as compared to say a Reconciliation Mass etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
