“Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.”

— James 5:14

The Anointing of the Sick is a sacrament that offers spiritual healing, strength, and comfort to those who are seriously ill, undergoing major surgery, or approaching the end of life.

If you or a loved one is in need of the Anointing of the Sick, please contact the parish office as soon as possible. For after-hours emergencies, please call the pastor's cellphone (available in the bulletin).

This sacrament is not only for those at the point of death — anyone facing serious illness is encouraged to receive it.
