Sacraments of Healing

From April 16 to 19, 1999, Metropolitan Kalistos (Ware) led a retreat for the Orthodox Peace Fellowship, at the parish of St Etienne and St Germain, in Vezelay, France; this slender book is a transcription of his six profound and moving talks. His Eminence treats of man as microcosm; the proper use of the passions; Christ as Physician (the true meaning of Confession and Anointing); peace and healing in the Divine Liturgy; healing in the parish, the local Church, and the world; and bodily death as an experience of healing.
