Prayer  is  at  the  heart of Christianity , because at the heart of Christianity is a relationship with Jesus Christ. Prayer is the primary way in which we develop this relationship, since prayer is conversation with Him. Holy Trinity desires to be a community of pray-ers. Closely linked with prayer is healing. Jesus healed, and he told his disciples to do the same, and they did so. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that healing was confined to any period of history. Rather, we should expect God to continue to heal miraculously today as part of His Kingdom activity.

Meeting each month, DOK is a religious order for lay or ordained women in the Episcopal Church, committed to daily prayer, service, and evangelism. There is also a "junior division" for girls, who share the same Rules of Prayer and Service as senior members, and whose mission it is to spread Christ’s Kingdom among their female peers. 

On Monday evenings at 5:15pm Holy Trinity offers public services of healing with the laying on of hands and anointing (Holy Unction). Our healing ministry is grounded in our Lord’s own healing ministry and that which the apostles exercised in his name. The healing services our offered as part of the service of Holy Eucharist, since our clergy feels that the sacrament of healing is best placed in the context of the Paschal Mystery. Healing unites the sick person with Jesus in his suffering and death, and thereby also in his resurrection. The anointing of the sick is the sacrament of resurrection and life in Christ.
