Thursday, March 21
Our Lady of Sorrows Church
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.” (CCC 1499)
Who may receive this sacrament?
Those awaiting a surgery of a serious nature.
The elderly who are notably weakened, even if not seriously ill.
Sick children may be strengthened through this anointing.
Our parish invites all those Catholics who may be ill to this sacred encounter that they might know that Christ, who often visited and healed the sick, loves them in their illness.
