Sacrament of the Sick

 


The Sacrament of the Sick provides spiritual help and strength to those who are unwell or elderly, and is often administered to the housebound. The priest prays for, and with, the sick person and anoints them with Holy Oil. In the case of a long illness it is more helpful for the patient to receive the Sacrament at a time when they are able to appreciate the benefits it confers.

Fr John Byrne or Fr Peter Egboo will always try to visit in an emergency.

If you or someone you know would like to receive the Sacrament of the Sick please contact the Parish Office
