Cayce with training class from Gruene.
incredible – it has become very normal to
see healing and miracles happening. We
see many people healed of cancer – and
that’s when our guests are working with
doctors. We work with the healing
community of doctors in this town who
are so wonderful. And we definitely have
seen many doctors who say, ‘Things
changed – when you all prayed.’”
According to Cayce, guests have
written many profound comments on
anonymous feedback forms at ONE. In
answer to the question, “What benefit
did you feel you received from your
prayer time today,” comments have
included: “Healing of the root of why I
have felt not valued my whole life and
why I’ve subjected myself to abuse.” And,
“I learned so much. I learned that I have
been believing lies from the enemy. Jesus
showed me that I am free and He is
always with me. I feel free and alive and
ready to be in His kingdom.”
Peyton May, a young man attending
the leadership class (which is by invitation
and application only) is taking
steps of faith to spark belief any time
he can. Peyton says, “I love doing
outreach. Whether I’m at church,
whether I’m in the workplace, all this
kind of blends together for me.” He
strikes up natural conversations
whenever he can and lets God take it
from there. A former drug addict who
was transformed dramatically after he
came to Jesus just a few years back,
Peyton said he recently enjoyed talking
to a co-worker as they walked together.
As they talked about her kids, he
noticed that this woman was favoring
her ankle. He asked if she was okay.
“I’ve seen Jesus heal people through
prayer,” he told her. “And you know, if
that’s something you’re open to, I
would love to pray with you, but if not,
that’s totally fine. She opened up said
“yes,” and almost immediately after a
little prayer, her ankle became
completely free of pain.
Peyton’s joyful abandon and God’s
supernatural healing are inspiring.
Stories like Peyton’s can lead someone
to understand why the above-mentioned
caller would ask the ONE receptionist:
“Can you guarantee that I will
be healed?” Cayce says that while she
empathizes with a question like that,
ONE offers no such guarantee. “No,
absolutely not, and that’s not what we’re
going after.” As freeing as physical
healing can be, Cayce says, “that is not
our sole focus. We know where healing
comes from – it comes from following
the Healer. So all of our classes and our
prayer times are focused on connection,
and what it is to live as one with God.
And that was Jesus’s prayer in John 17.”

It was this concept of connection
with Jesus which goes beyond walls
which led to the name change from
Christ Healing Center (CHC) to ONE.
The word, “Healing” in the former
name seemed to focus too much on
physical healing. “Not that healing’s
bad,” laughs Cayce. “It’s just that we’re
not worshipping healing. We’re
worshipping Jesus. And connection to
Him will bring healing. And only He
knows how to do that.” Also, says
“ I love the focus on John 17 unity and the plan
for ONE to serve the entire community as a
collaborative organization. ONE gives us all
the opportunity to come together as the Body
of Christ and work together in a
way that glorifies God and
leads others into a relationship
with Jesus.“
