Anyone who is ill due to sickness, injury or near death may be anointed. The sacrament is for serious mental or emotional illness as well. A person should be anointed at the onset of his or her illness, or before surgery whenever a serious condition is the reason for the surgery. The anointing may be repeated if the same illness or condition becomes more serious.
If you have questions about the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick, please contact Mary Beth Meyer in the in the Parish Office at 683-0105.
