The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is a powerful gift of healing and grace, offering spiritual strength to those facing illness, advanced age, or serious medical conditions. Through this sacrament, Christ brings comfort, peace, and renewal to the suffering.

Additionally, Communion to the Sick ensures that those unable to attend Mass due to illness or infirmity can still receive the Eucharist, remaining connected to Christ and the parish community.

Anointing of the Sick

The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is available for:

• Those suffering from serious illness or preparing for surgery
• Elderly individuals experiencing the challenges of aging

Communion to the Sick

For those unable to attend Mass, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion bring the Eucharist to homes, hospitals, and care facilities. This ministry ensures that the sick and homebound remain spiritually nourished and connected to the Church.
