The Sacrament of Anointing is the Church's celebration of the healing power and presence of Christ that continues among his disciples today. This sacrament is designed for healing and strengthening of both body and spirit, and it is recommended that the faithful celebrate it as soon as they face a serious health condition. The custom of waiting until one is on the deathbed to receive the sacrament is discouraged, since it is meant to be a sacrament of healing, not a sacrament of the dying.
Please notify the rectory of ill parishioners who wish to receive Holy Communion and in need of the Sacrament of the Anointing; a priest will visit the sick person as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact the rectory. We can be reached at 305-379-1424,
Monday through Friday from 9-2:oo pm.
