Sacrament of the Sick
Jesus was known as a healer of body, mind and spirit. Many of our Bible stories recount Jesus healing lepers, the lame, the blind, the broken in body, mind and soul. The sacrament of the sick is one of the seven sacraments of the Church. It is prayer and anointing with Holy Oil to bring the healing strength of God to those in need especially as they face a serious operation or a long term illness. The sacrament of the sick is offered every first Friday of the month after the 8:30 AM Mass or by appointment.
Please contact the parish office when serious illness and/or hospitalization occur. Many area hospitals no longer list patients by parish, so we rely on your timely notification to arrange a visit or the Sacrament of the Sick.
