Anointing of the Sick/
Visitation of the Sick
The Anointing of the Sick is available to seriously ill members of our parish at home or in hospital. Please call the Rectory to make arrangements. For legal reasons, many hospitals no longer inform parishes when a member is hospitalized; so please inform the Rectory that a hospitalized paritioner would like a parish visit.
