Anointing of the Sick
​
​"By the sacred anointing of the sick and the prayer of the priests the whole Church commends those who are ill to the suffering and glorified Lord, that he may raise them up and save them.  And indeed she exhorts them to contribute to the good of the People of God by freely uniting themselves to the Passion and death of Christ."
- Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) - 1499

The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick helps unite those who are suffering with Jesus' saving and healing power. Through this sacrament people receive forgiveness for their sins and comfort in their suffering and are restored in spirit. Jesus unites our suffering with his passion and death so that through our suffering we can participate in his saving and healing work. This sacrament also reminds us that God wants to give comfort to the suffering and wants us to relieve suffering where we can. In the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick, the priest anoints the seriously ill, injured or the elderly with the oil of the sick, which is blessed by the bishop at the Chrism Mass during Holy Week.
​
If you or a loved one would like to receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick, please contact the parish office to set up an appointment.
