According to Mrs. Singh, the critical components of healing are praying to the God of Health, Wahguru, as well as reading and following the words of Guru Granth Sahib in the Holy Book.

Mrs. Singh liked spending time with her family, and the frequent visits by immediate and distant family members helped her to not focus on her illness.
Joshua THEO 202_D26_201120 Short Essay 3 Short Essay on Ecclesiology: The Role of Women in the Church When approaching women in church ministry and leadership, the primary source for guidance on such matters is the Bible.
