Anointing of the Sick
Second Saturday of the month
after the 8:00 a.m. Mass
To make the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick more widely available, the priests will administer this sacrament in the church after the 8:00 a.m. Mass on the second Saturday of the month, beginning on August 13, 2022.
The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is for any Christian who is seriously impaired by sickness or old age, or who is preparing for or recovering from surgery for a serious illness. Elderly people may be anointed if they have become notably weakened even though no serious illness is present.
Serious illness includes serious physical illnesses; serious mental illnesses (such as bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, etc.); serious physical addictions (e.g., to alcohol, drugs, and other substances); and serious behavioral addictions (e.g., to food, sex, pornography, video games, Internet or computer use, etc.).
The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick may be repeated if the sick person recovers after being anointed and then again falls ill, or if during the same illness the person’s condition becomes more serious. For someone with a serious, chronic illness, the Sacrament may be repeated every month or so.
Please do not come to the parish for the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick if you have a communicable disease (including COVID-19 or the symptoms of COVID-19). Instead, please stay at home and contact the Pastoral Office (909-861-7106) to arrange for a priest to visit you to administer the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick. (The Pastoral Office is open from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. every day, except Tuesday, when it is closed.)
