(Homebound/Hospital Communions)

The Anointing of the Sick has as its purpose the conferral of a special grace on the Christian experiencing difficulties that are associated with serious illness or advanced age. Any baptized Catholic who has sufficient use of reason to be strengthened by this sacrament and who is suffering from a serious illness, is facing serious surgery, or whose health is impaired by advanced age may receive the Anointing of the Sick.

The Anointing of the Sick is available by calling the parish office to schedule individual anointing at home or hospital. All hospitals on Oahu have chaplains or local parish priests who are available for the Anointing of the Sick for new admissions and emergencies. Please note that you must express to hospital personnel that you wish to have services of priest or Catholic Eucharistic Minister of the hospital.
