Anointing of the Sick

If someone you know is imminently dying, contact the parish office (715-855-1294) or the rectory (715-514-0161), and Father will free up his schedule as soon as possible.

However, this Sacrament is not merely for the dying. Whether someone has a serious illness or injury, a major surgery, or advanced age, it is important to receive this Sacrament so that our sufferings can be united to the sufferings of Christ.

If you are anticipating a major surgery, please set up an appointment with Father for anointing before you go in for your hospitalization.

Murphy of Rockville Centre, N.Y., is accompanied by nurse Phyllis Benanti as he blesses patient Sam Keller at Good Shepherd Hospice Inpatient Center in Port Jefferson, N.Y., Jan. 14. World Day of the Sick, observed annually Feb. 11 on the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, affirms the church’s duty to remember and serve the sick and the suffering. (CNS photo/Gregory A.
