Due to restrictions with Covid-19, the Sacrament of the Sick will only be administered to persons in danger of death and at the direct request of the administration of the establishment (Hospital, Nursing Home, Hospice, etc). If you would like to request the Sacrament of the Sick for a family member that is in danger of death, please speak to administration of the respective establishment to make arrangements with the clergy.
The anointing of the sick is administered to bring spiritual and even physical strength during an illness, especially near the time of death. A sacrament is an outward sign established by Jesus Christ to confer inward grace. In more basic terms, it is a rite that is performed to convey God’s grace to the recipient, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Sacrament of the Sick takes place:
The first Friday of February and October at Blessed Sacrament after Adoration
Third Tuesday of February and October at St. Ursula.
If your need to be anointed is more urgent, please call the office at 519-352-9483.
