Anointing of the Sick

Annointing of the Sick

The Church has seven sacraments – of which one is the Sacrament of the Sick, or Anointing.  Often times, when someone is facing a serious illness, they or someone should call the parish office and request a priest to administer the sacrament.

If a parishioner is in the hospital, they should request the hospital chaplain or a member of the hospital pastoral team to make the Sacrament of the Sick available.

Someone should also notify the parish office so a priest or pastoral minister can visit the sick person  at home or in the hospital.

Please call 609-522-2709 if you have any questions.
