Sacrament of the
Anointing of the Sick

"Heal the Sick!"  The Church has received this charge from the Lord and strives to carry it out by taking care of the sick as well as accompanying them with her prayer of intercession.  (CCC 1509)

By the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick  the whole Church commends those who are ill and suffering to the Lord, asking for his healing of both Body and Spirit.​

"Is anyone among you sick? He should summon the presbyters of the Church, and they should pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord,and the prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up". 

 If he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven."       

   (James 5: 14-15)
