SACRAMENT OF CONFESSION

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is one of the most unique and beautiful aspects of Catholicism. Jesus Christ, in His abundant love and mercy, established the Sacrament of Confession, so that we as sinners can obtain forgiveness for our sins and reconcile with God and the Church. The sacrament “washes us clean,” and renews us in Christ.

“Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so, I send you.’ And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained’” (John 20:21-23).

Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick

The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick

A sacrament is
 1.an outward sign
 2. established by Jesus Christ
 3. to confer inward grace

It is a rite that is performed to convey God's grace to the recipient, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

like all the sacraments, holy anointing was instituted by Jesus Christ during his earthly ministry. The Catechism explains, "This sacred anointing of the sick was instituted by Christ our Lord. It is alluded to indeed by Mark but is recommended to the faithful and promulgated by James the apostle and brother of the Lord" (CCC 1511).

CAST OUT MANY DEMONS, AND ANOINTED WITH OIL MANY WHO WERE SICK AND CURED THEM (Mark 6:13)

The bishop blesses three oils :
1. Oil of Catechumens (Oleum Sanctorum)
2. Oil of the Infirm (Oleum Infirmorum)
3. Holy Chrism (Sacrum Chrisma)


Anointing sometimes occurs in a church at a Mass of healing. It is offered to the sick or elderly or anyone in need of healing in a community setting. It often takes place at home, nursing homes, and hospitals. For example, a person who is going to have surgery may be anointed. The sacrament may be received more than once, such as when a sick person's condition worsens, or when a new illness occurs.
