Day 209: Summary of the Anointing of the Sick
This summary of the Catechism’s teaching about the Anointing of the Sick is concise and rich. This holy anointing brings us hope and courage as we endure illness and the difficulties of old age. While we pray for healing of body and soul, this sacrament also prepares us for death. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1526-1532.
