Catholics believe that healing occurs during all Masses through the gift of the holy spirit. During a healing Mass and service, participants must remain open to the holy spirit and invite him into their hearts in order for healing to take place. The theme of the entire Mass is healing, from the celebrant to the music to the participants to prayer teams. Pam Vaillancourt will offer the music at the service.

For more information, call Prince of Peace Parish at 207-777-1200.
