If you or a loved one are injured, ill, preparing for a medical procedure or otherwise in need of healing, please contact the parish office. We can arrange for you to be anointed by Fr. Mark Pavlik (or, in an emergency, by another priest). If you call our office after hours, follow the emergency instructions to leave a message for Fr. Mark Pavlik - he checks those messages during the evenings and weekends.

This Sacrament is not reserved for near-death situations - it is an opportunity to receive the grace of God's healing and the prayers of the community. Twice a year, we also offer this Sacrament in the context of a communal liturgy. People who are advanced in years, gravely ill, have developed a new illness, or have a current ailment has worsened may receive the sacrament of the anointing of the sick.

After Mass, proceed to the front pews of the church and have a seat (if there are a number of peope, and you can stand for an extended time you may be asked to be in the aisles between the front pews). Once everyone is gathered Fr. Mark will lead prayer and anointing everyone. We had planned to do so this the weekend of March 14/15, however, due to public health concerns we will not hold that communual anointing at this time. However, Fr. Mark will continue to respond to requests to administer the sacrament in your home or care center.
