Healing Pathway Phase 1 Workshop
The Cedar Park United (West Island) Healing Pathway ministry will be hosting a Phase 1 training workshop on April 4-5, 2025 in the church building.
This is open to anyone wishing to become a practitioner or to refresh their skills, and is open to people of all faiths and spiritual paths.
The Healing Pathway training promotes self-care and assists in restoring wholeness, balance, and harmony at all levels of being – physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually through grounding techniques, meditation, and a series of healing sequences. Healing is experienced individually for receivers when an intention is set, and there is a connection to the Divine. The foundation of the program lies in the tradition of healing within the Christian faith but is open to people of all faiths and spiritual paths.
