Loving God and Neighbour
In the 2015 issues of Chrism we are recalling the Guild of St Raphael’s century of endeavour in promoting the ministry of healing through sacramental and other means. While our Festivals, like many of our branches, have concentrated very much on prayer and sacrament, the articles in Chrism have taken a broader perspective. This more comprehensive approach has been central in facilitating our work towards reuniting with the Guild of Health, but this does not mean that we do not treasure our history. It is for this reason that the current issue reviews that history and brings into the era of electronic communication some seminal articles from the past. In this Spring issue, the focus is on loving God through prayer and sacrament as ways of helping ourselves and others on the way to wholeness. As usual, it is remarkable how well the contribution from CSTH compliments our main theme.
