Malta Curia Issues Instructions on Healing Services and Prayer Meetings

Spread the love

Two years ago the Church Authorities in Malta had ordered a ban on some healing services, and these had continued to be held outside of churches just the same, disobeying those orders.

The Maltese Curia has issued on 18th February 2005, a press release pertaining to Healing Services and Prayer Meetings with praying for healing, which are held all over the Archdiocese of Malta and the Diocese of Gozo.

UPDATE: Till this day (12/4/14) the Curia when contacted confirmed that the ban is still in force as the healing services by Catholic Revival Movement are still being organised. In Malta only Marana tha’, Fr Elija Vella and Fr Hayden Williams organise healing services with the required permission of the Archbishop. Others who are not priests are in disobedience of this.

Life in Malta Blog

Lori is a Canadian student at the University of Malta who has set up her own blog. She writes about university life and about Malta of course.

A blog is a personal Web page that some say will change the way people communicate online. There are many different types of blogs. I don't call my news posts as blogs but they might be called that.

Lori's “Life in Malta” is an interesting blog. Lori has just returned from her Christmas holidays and it is almost examination time now at University.
