FOR PASTORS AND LEADERS
WORSHIP LED BY KIM WALKER, BRYAN & KATIE TORWALT
The Hem of His Garment Healing Schools are designed and run by Bethel Church in Redding, CA. Bethel, under the direction of Pastor Bill Johnson (author of When Heaven Invades Earth and Face to Face With God,) has become a community of believers who live a naturally supernatural lifestyle, see miracles happen throughout their daily lives and know that Jesus’ healing power is available today.
The Healing Schools are lead by Joaquin Evans, the director of Bethel’s Healing Rooms Ministries, where people come from all over the globe to receive ministry, and where the miraculous power of Jesus and creative miracles have become common and expected. Each of the schools’ speakers is a leader in Bethel’s healing movement, and all are sought internationally for both their experience and the powerful ways in which God uses them. Sessions will teach, impart and activate the healing gifts, increase understanding of how to carry the anointing, and explain how to create an atmosphere of faith. Participants will have ample opportunity to practice what they are “catching,” and if they wish, to join the team as they take healing to the streets. Also, pastors and ministry leaders will learn ways to cultivate and maintain an atmosphere conducive to healing in their churches and ministries.
The Goodness of God is central to all we do, and therefore the Healing Schools overflow with the joy and freedom of the Lord. The Kingdom truly is at hand, and it really is “easier than we think!” Come join us as we dive into the presence of God and pull on The Hem of His Garment. You will go home fuller than you came!
This school is 4½ days long, featuring sessions with approximately twelve
Bethel pastors. Worship times will be led by Kim Walker, Bryan and Katie Torwalt and other special guests. In addition to the speaking and worship sessions, attendees will
experience ministry from our intercessors, (a “Holy Spirit day spa”)
and Bethel's own Healing Rooms ministry. Two catered meals are
included.

This apostolic network has crossed denominational lines in building relationships that enable church leaders to walk in both purity and power. The present move of God has brought Bill into a deeper understanding of the phrase, "On earth as it is in heaven." Heaven is the model for our life and ministry. Learning to recognize the Holy Spirit's presence, and how to follow His lead will enable us to do the works of Christ, destroying the works of the devil. Bill and the Bethel Church family have taken on this theme for life and ministry. He teaches that we owe the world an encounter with God, and that a Gospel without power is not the Gospel that Jesus preached. Bill is the author of several books, including “Face to Face With God” and “Dreaming With God.”
