The anointing of the sick is perhaps the most misunderstood sacrament. Once called extreme unction, this sacrament has evolved from something akin to a kiss of death into a hope-filled ritual to stregthen us during illness. In The Gift of the Anointing of the Sick, Sr. Kathleen Glavich reveals the power behind this sacrament through a discussion of its history and an explanation of its significance. She describes what to expect during the sacrament and gives helpful suggestions for how to help care for a sick person. The book also includes a questions-and-answer section and suggested Scripture readings and prayers. This affordable resource will be a helpful and considerate gift to people preparing for the anointing of the sick as well as their family members and close friends.
