Anointing of the Sick
The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick is offered to those who are very sick or near death. Family, friends, and parish members gather to pray for God’s healing and mercy. The priest and those gathered pray that the sick person might be healed, and the priest anoints the sick person and prays of their health. Those who receive the sacrament are given the grace to respond to their illness with hope and strengthens their faith in a loving God. This sacrament may be celebrated during Mass or anywhere it is needed, including at the home or hospital of the sick person. Catholics can celebrate this sacrament more than once.
If you or someone you know is home bound and wants to receive Communion or the Sacrament of Anointing, please call the parish office at 503-631-2882.
​
We also offer the Anointing of the Sick at 8:00am Mass on the First Saturday of the month.
