    The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick addresses our human fragility; sickness, accidents, age, and is considered a Sacrament of healing.
    It unites those who are suffering with Jesus' saving and healing power.  It is Jesus, through the ministry of the priest, who touches the sick to heal them from sin, and sometimes, even from physical ailment.

    As a Sacrament, it is one of the ways Jesus assists us in life and offers his divine help.  The Rite of Anointing tells us there is no need to wait until a person is at the point of death to receive the Sacrament because Jesus offers his courage, strength and healing -- including spiritual healing in the forgiveness of sins.  We hope that the effect is that, if it be God's will, the person be physically healed.  But even if there is no physical healing, the primary effect of the Sacrament is the spiritual healing, where the Holy Spirit's gifts of peace and courage unite us with the sufferings of Christ and help us to endure the difficulties that accompany serious illness or the frailty of old age. This Sacrament promises  the healing powers of the presence of our Lord. We know that sometimes our prayers are answered in ways that are good for us, rather than in the ways we want. We know that the Lord is working in our lives and we trust in God's goodness.
