ANOINTING OF THE SICK: "By the sacred anointing of the sick and the prayer of the priests the whole Church commends those who are ill to the suffering and glorified Lord, that he may raise them up and save them. And indeed, she exhorts them to contribute to the good of the People of God by freely uniting themselves to the Passion and death of Christ." (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1499). This is a sacrament of healing for either physical, emotional, or spiritual illness. It is meant to strengthen the spirit of those who are about to have serious surgery, are seriously ill, or are elderly and frail.
