Modlitwa o tak zwane uzdrowienie międzypokoleniowe jest zjawiskiem powszechnym w Kościele. W wielu miejscach świata ludzie przybywają na takie modlitwy, aby szukać wsparcia i uleczenia z ran zadanych przez przodków. Niniejszy artykuł pragnie wskazać trudności wynikające z samej formy takiej modlitwy oraz teologiczne problemy wynikające z nauczania i tradycji Magisterium Kościoła.

The popularity of a prayer for intergeneration healing has been commonly observed in today’s Church. This peculiar phenomenon of our times is becoming a pastoral call as well. People participating in such prayers should be provided with suitable help and care to properly evaluate what happens in their lives. However, from the viewpoint of the Bible, tradition and theology, these types of prayers arouse more and more questions and difficulties. Lex orandi and lex credendi face each other, in addition to which the first one seems to be more valuable. The history of the Church does not yet know a case when both laws were supposed to stand in contradiction to each other. Lex orandi has rather always been a supplement to lex credendi. Is such an assumption also possible in case of prayers for intergeneration healing? This article points to such elements of the prayer, in which it becomes doubtful from the viewpoint of the tradition and Church teaching.
