At Saint Luke Catholic Chaplaincy, UCH Ibadan, we believe that healing encompasses the mind, body, and soul. Faith plays a profound role in supporting patients during their recovery journey. For many, the hospital can be a place of uncertainty and fear, but spirituality provides a source of comfort, hope, and resilience.
Patients who engage in spiritual practices, such as prayer, meditation, or scripture reading, often report greater peace of mind and emotional strength. At our chaplaincy, we offer pastoral care and counseling, helping patients connect with God during their most vulnerable moments. The sacraments, including Holy Communion and the Anointing of the Sick, serve as a channel of divine grace, bringing healing and solace to the suffering.
We’ve witnessed countless testimonies of patients who experienced renewed strength and miraculous recoveries through their faith. Families also find reassurance knowing that their loved ones are surrounded by prayers and spiritual support. By fostering a sense of hope, spirituality can even complement medical treatments, aiding the healing process.
Through chaplaincy activities, such as prayer groups and scripture reflections, we create an environment where faith flourishes, and patients find encouragement. We invite everyone—patients, healthcare professionals, and visitors—to embrace the transformative power of faith as they navigate life’s challenges.
At Saint Luke Catholic Chaplaincy, UCH, healing is not just about curing the body but restoring the whole person. Join us in our mission to bring Christ’s comfort to those in need.
