Anointing of the Sick

One of the most debilitating things about sickness is the way it separates us from those around us. It may mean being confined to home or quarantined from those closest to us. It may mean being unable to participate in everyday activities that bring us together with others.

We have scheduled a Eucharistic Celebration with Anointing of the Sick on Saturday, October 16th at 10:00 am. This is the chance to bring your health concerns to the Lord in the context of mass and this faith community.

WHO SHOULD BE ANOINTED? The guidelines for the sacrament say, “any persistent and serious concern for one’s health…” is reason for someone to request the anointing. Health concerns such as depression, anxiety, addiction, spiritual doubt and chronic pain are all sufficient to receive the anointing. There will be no questions asked. Simply indicate your wish to be anointed.

Come and experience the healing and comforting Hand of God working through the Sacrament of the Sick and the care of this parish. We will observe all safe distancing, mask and sanitizing protocols.

However, if you are not ready to attend a Mass in person but wish to receive this sacrament, Fr. Tim will gladly come to your home to anoint you. Please call the Parish Office@ 265􏰁1616 to make an appointment.
