The Power of Blessing: Calling Forth Wholeness (HPW Retreat)

The Power of Blessing: Calling Forth Wholeness
Houston Prayer Warriors Retreat with Joy Hilley

Course Overview

To invoke a blessing is to call wholeness upon a person.—John O’Donohue

A great mystery of the faith is how God could merely speak and bring forth the universe. From that dramatic example of speech bringing life, we who are created in the image of God are called to wrestle with the weightiness and consequence of our speech. Life or death. Good or evil. Creation or destruction. The power of life and death are in the tongue, as the proverb instructs.    

In this teaching, Joy Hilley will examine the scriptural foundation for speaking blessings over oneself and others. She will discuss how to partner with the Holy Spirit to call forth wholeness and healing—to bring the Kingdom of heaven to earth. In addition to the teaching, she will give ample time for practicing these truths with one another. 

Class participants will have time for personal reflection, prayer, and worship. Participants also will be given an opportunity to create their own piece of art as a spiritual exercise, an act of personal devotion. No art skill or experience is necessary and art materials are provided. 

The course is open to women. It will be held at Holy Name Retreat Center in Houston. For registration details, email Hello (at) JoyHilley.com
