In the course of life, humans suffer from illnesses of body, mind, and spirit. The Sacrament of Anointing (previously called the Last Rites or Extreme Unction) confers the healing touch of God on the sick and forgives sin. Sometimes the sacrament restores a person to full health. Sometimes it prepares a person to accept the reality of death, which is a necessary part of human life. In the case of immanent death, the Eucharist is offered as Viaticum, food for the journey to the Father. 
If you or a loved one would like the anointing, please call the St Marianne Cope office at 585-334-3518; In an emergency, call (585) 269-8858.  Anointing is also offered after Mass on the last Sunday of the month.
