The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick by a priest, absolves someone of sin and hopefully, heals the person, during a serious illness. A Catholic need not be dying to have this Sacrament.

The person may not be physically healed of the illness, but spiritual healing is a large part of healing the soul through God's love and the Holy Spirit, and preparing the person for whatever may come.

If you know of someone (or you yourself), who requires this sacrament, please contact Father Scott Gratton at (802) 728-5251 or (802) 234-9916 or sgratton@vermontcatholic.org
