The International Order of Saint Luke the Physician (“OSL”) is an ecumenical organization of people from many Christian denominations and backgrounds, dedicated to the Christian healing ministry. Members meet together in local chapters to study Scripture, especially the biblical stories of the healing miracles, as well as other books on Christian healing. Members also engage in healing prayer, often with the laying-on of hands. Our mission is to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ by taking Christ’s power to heal out into the world.
OSL counts among its members clergy and laypeople, including many health care professionals (doctors, nurses, specialists, therapists, and others).
