NORWICH – The Broad Street United Methodist Church will hold its yearly Lenten Healing Service during its 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. worship services on Sunday, continuing a tradition that began four years ago.

Said senior pastor Nancy Hale, “A service of healing is not necessarily a service of curing, but it provides an atmosphere in which healing can happen. The greatest healing of all is the reunion or reconciliation of a human being first with God, and then with other people.”

When that happens, added Hale, who took over as pastor at the Methodist Church in January, physical healing sometimes occurs; mental and emotional balance is often restored; spiritual health is enhanced; and relationships are healed.
