United by our common baptism and Father, we of the Holy Family community praise God for the abundant gifts given to each and every one of us and we take seriously our responsibility to use these gifts in service for the good of all creation.

Anointing of the Sick

 

 

The Anointing of the Sick:

Sacrament of Anointing provides a special grace

  • The uniting of the sick person to the passion of Christ, for his own good and that of the whole Church.
  • The strengthening, peace, and courage to endure in a Christian manner the sufferings of illness or old age
  • The forgiveness of sins, if the sick person was not able to obtain it through the sacrament of Penance
  • The restoration of health, if it is conducive to the salvation of his soul
  • The preparation for passing over to eternal life

Catechism of Catholic Church 1532

We administer this sacrament two times per year during our weekend Masses. Our priests also are happy to anoint you at another time. Please contact the parish office at 701-746-1454. In an after-hours emergency, please contact 701-367-3305
