Anointing of the Sick

---

The Anointing of the Sick is a sacrament of the Church for those whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age. It is a source of healing for the sick rather than the final act of the church for the dying.  The Sacrament enables the sick or aged person to be anointed with the oil of the sick, to experience the healing and strength of Jesus Christ and to be supported by a praying community.  (Archdiocese of Brisbane Website)
​

 
The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick is celebrated through the following ways in our parish:

• Anointing of the Sick Mass, approximately 3 times a year 
• Care Facilities within our Parish
• By contacting the priory and organising an anointing with one of our priests
