Anointing of the Sick

One of the seven sacraments, administered by a priest to a baptized person who begins to be in danger of death because of illness or old age, through prayer and the anointing of the body with the oil of the sick. The proper effects of the sacrament include a special grace of healing and comfort to the Christian who is suffering the infirmities of serious illness or old age, and the forgiving of the person's sins. (See CCC #'s 1499, 1520, 1523, 1526-1532)

We at Holy Spirit want to journey with you and your loved ones in times of sickness. Our priests would be happy to administer this sacrament anytime by appointment or call our office at (605) 371-2320
