Anointing the Sick and Suffering



This weekend, we will anoint any person who comes forward for the Anointing of the Sick. We will offer this anointing at all of the Masses.

This weekend is also our weekend to have coffee and donuts, or light refreshments after all of the masses.

Our Human Concerns/Social Justice committee members will also speak briefly to us at the start of all liturgies about this important ministry in our parish.

We will also baptize some new children into our faith community at Mass this weekend.

For many parishes, all of this "activity" would seem overwhelming. For St. Aneslm, it's business as usual. Welcome newly baptized and their families! Welcome the newly anointed with the Oil of the Sick. Welcome visitors looking for true Vatican II style worship! Welcome all who are seeking a spiritual home in the midst of the desert!
