Evangelist Blessing
The evangelist blessing is a sacrament that provides a person sacred time and space for an evangelist to offer a special prayer of blessing. In Community of Christ, an evangelist is a special minister of blessing. When the time comes for the blessing, the evangelist places hands on the head of the person and offers a special prayer of blessing to give hope, assurance, and insights. The evangelist gives the recipient a printed copy of the prayer to refer to throughout one's life. The sacrament of the evangelist blessing is available to members and friends of the church above the age of accountability (8 and older).
