A Gift Given, A Gift Taken Away
I recently heard this podcast that I found quite amazing. You can also read the PDF here if you prefer. It is a history of the practice of women giving blessings of healing and washings and anointings of the sick. Women were allowed to do this until the 1940s and it was not only done to members of the woman's family as I had previously believed.
I am so saddened that fear and apparently jealousy put an end to this beautiful practice. I pray that I will live to see these privileges reinstated to the worthy women of this church.
