The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is one of the seven sacraments which Jesus Christ instituted as a great comfort to those who are enduring illness or the frailty of old age.
Sometimes, it may bring about physical healing. However, it always affects the forgiveness of any sins and pours forth the grace of God into the heart of the Christian. The Sacrament of the Annointing of the Sick should be requested by anyone who is seriously ill, preparing to undergo surgery, advanced in years or in danger of death.
If you desire to receive the Sacrament of Anointing, either you or a family member should contact the Parish Office, 210-342-5271 as soon as possible.
