- Retreat: "Healing Faith in the Face of Serious Illness and Suffering, Wounds and Injuries – Reconciliation with One's Own Life" with Rev. Dr. Jesu-Paul Manikonda
Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer. Through reconciliation of one's own life history with God, we can let Him heal our injuries and wounds. To believe in Jesus Christ as Savior and Redeemer also means to allow oneself to be declared saved, to be able to forgive oneself and others, and to find peace with the wounds and injuries in one's own life. After such healing experiences, we long as human beings to be able to look courageously forward and to find joy in life and in our Christian faith. After studies of medicine, psychology and theology in India, Europe and the USA, Dr. Jesu-Paul Manikonda researches holistic forgiveness at the University of Würzburg and offers medical, biblical-theological and psycho-spiritual support. Within the framework of New Evangelization through the Word of God, the sacraments and spiritual psychotherapy, he offers seminars/retreats on spiritual-holistic healing and wishes to help us. His aim is that Jesus Christ, as the Way, the Truth and the Life, reaches every human heart through His Holy Spirit and is reshaped and transformed, so that our hearts beat for God and our neighbor. In this way, we are enabled to perceive the impulses of the Holy Spirit in our lives and implement them so that they correspond to the will of God. The goal of the seminars/retreats is: Our heart shall become a temple of the Holy Spirit and we shall all thus become living members of the Body of Christ, the Church. This strengthens our faith and makes us credible witnesses of His Good News of love. Thus we can find peace, joy, happiness and a successful life in abundance. Thu., 24.09.2026, 5:00 PM
