Anointing at St. Clare Parish

From the time of the Apostles, the sick have been anointed with oil, praying for restoration of health and forgiveness of sins.

Although this sacrament was once known as “Last Rites,” the Anointing is not for the dead or only for those close to death. Those who suffer from acute or chronic serious illness or who are weakened because of advanced years are good candidates for the Anointing of the Sick. The sacrament, however, is not celebrated for infants or for children younger than 7 years old.
