Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick

Illness can lead individuals to experiences pain, suffering, powerlessness, anguish, and even despair. Illness can also lead a person to discover what is really important in life. Very often illness provokes a search for God and a return to him. Jesus had much compassion toward the sick and healed many. He instituted the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick to bring healing to those who are ill. The healing may be physical or spiritual. The Sacrament offers strength, peace, and courage.
 
Anyone going to the hospital, especially for an operation, should contact the rectory and arrange to receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick.
