Anointing of the Sick is a sacrament of healing that every Catholic should receive when seriously ill or in danger of death. Through the sacramental anointing and prayers of the priest, the infirm receive health and strength for the soul, and sometimes the body, to steadfastly accept God's will and to remain strong in the midst of suffering and sickness. This sacrament is especially powerful in preparing souls for death through wiping away sins and cleansing temporal punishment.
If you or someone you love is seriously ill, please contact the parish office to request Anointing of the Sick.
