By the sacred anointing of the sick and the prayer of the priests the whole Church commends those who are ill to the suffering and glorified Lord, that he may raise them up and save them and indeed she exhorts them to contribute to the good of the People of God by freely uniting themselves to the Passion and death of Christ. Catechism of the Catholic Church 1499
Pastoral Care of the Sick and Homebound
Holy Communion and the Sacrament of Anointing may be administered at home. Contact the Parish office when someone is confined to the home, seriously ill, or preparing for surgery and is in need of Pastoral Care.
