Not a "miracle cure," sacramental anointing does not promise physical relief, but often affords a healing of the spirit weighed down by sickness. At one time in our history, this sacrament was called extreme unction, or "last rites," and was presumed to be intended only for those who were near death. Today it is available to any Catholic who is seriously ill. If you are hospitalized, speak with the hospital's Pastoral Care department, and ask for the Catholic Chaplain. The Newman Center's priests are available for the anointing of our community members, and anyone under our pastoral care. Video: from BustedHalo.com: Sacraments 101 - The Anointing of the Sick: Who's it for? Who Should Receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick? Everyone needs to make their own decision as to when to ask for the sacrament of the anointing of the sick. Anyone who is in danger of death, as well as those who are seriously ill, someone who is going to have major surgery, or elderly persons ("if they have become notably weakened though no serious illness is present") should ask to be anointed when the need arises. By no means is this an exhaustive list. Someone may be young in age or look "perfectly healthy" but suffer from some type of chronic illness that seriously impairs their well-being or health (alcoholism or other addictions, bulimia or anorexia, depression, cancer, heart disease or other ailments). There is no time limit or expiration to this anointing. As the Apostolic Constitution on the sacrament of the anointing of the sick states, "This sacrament may be repeated if the sick person recovers after anointing and then falls ill or if, in the course of the same illness, the danger becomes more serious." One definitely should not wait for impending death to receive this sacrament. In fact, the Church encourages the celebration while the person is conscious and aware. This allows the sick person to realize that God's healing love is present to them not only in the person of the priest, but also in the love and presence of their family and friends as well as in the ministrations of the medical personnel who aid the sick person in their illness. When the ritual for this sacrament was revised in 1972, various options that had developed over time were consolidated so the celebration of the sacrament of the anointing of the sick would be uniform throughout the Catholic Church. The anointing of the sick can be celebrated three different ways: the ordinary rite of anointing a sick person which takes place either when a priest visits a sick person or during a regularly scheduled Mass or prayer service; the rite of viaticum (word comes from Latin for "necessities for the journey") which involves the reception of Holy Communion by one who is dying or in danger of death; and a rite of the sacraments for those near death, which is a continuous rite of the sacraments of penance, anointing and viaticum. - adapted from www.buckeyecatholic.com/anointing-sick .

This includes a review of the current rite of Anointing of the Sick through is development. The Catholic diaconate is examined in historical context with a special focus on the revised diaconate after 1967. Through these investigations it is apparent that there is cause for dialog within the Church considering current pastoral realities in the United States. The paper concludes that deacons should have the faculty to anoint the sick as ordinary ministers when it is celebrated as a separate liturgical rite.

  • In the Gospel According to John : a New Look at John 12:1-7
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE “Salvation by Gathering” in the Gospel according to John : A New Look at John 12:1-7 ■ 論 文 ■ “Salvation by Gathering” in the Gospel according to John : A New Look at John 12：1 － 7 Blanke, Jonathan A. ＊ This article focuses on the theological significance of the anointing of Jesus at Bethany in light of the passion and death of Jesus in the Fourth Gospel. It responds to the conclusion of earlier 20th century scholar- ship that John 12:1-7 is essentially meaningful as a text that evolved from an oral tradition comparable to other anointings of Jesus with perfume in the Synoptic Gospels. It supplements this prior scholarly study by focusing on the literary context of the Bethany anointing within the Fourth Gospel and its sociohistorical context in light of biblical and extra-biblical texts of the first-century. It demonstrates how, especially for first-century readers, the anointing episode in the Fourth Gospel served to anticipate Mary as kinswoman of Jesus and sister of those whom Jesus will call “my brothers” (John 20:17). The result is a text that also points modern-day readers bereft of community to a new community of God gathered through the death of Christ. Key Words : Anointing, Mary of Bethany, Salvation, Household/Family Imagery, Gospel of John In the essay that follows I will try to understand a John 12:1-7 and“Narrative Echo”in the passage of Scripture in light of God’s rescue, through Fourth Gospel the death of Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son, for those who live bereft of community.

  • PASTORAL CARE of the SICK Rites of Anointing and Viaticum
    PASTORAL CARE OF THE SICK Rites of Anointing and Viaticum THE ROMAN RITUAL Revised by Decree of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council and published by Authority of Pope Paul VI Approved for Use in the Dioceses of the United States of America By the National Conference of Catholic Bishops And Confirmed by the Apostolic See Prepared by the International Commission on English in the Liturgy [ICEL] (A Joint Commission of Catholic Bishops’ Conferences) 1 Pastoral Care of the Sick: Rites of Anointing and Viaticum General Introduction Human Sickness and Its Meaning in the Mystery of Salvation 1. Suffering and illness have always been among the greatest problems that trouble the human spirit. Christians feel and experience pain as do all other people; yet their faith helps them to grasp more deeply the mystery of suffering and to bear their pain with greater courage. From Christ's words they know that sickness has meaning and value for their own salvation and for the salvation of the world. They also know that Christ, who during his life often visited and healed the sick, loves them in their illness. 2. Although closely linked with the human condition, sickness cannot as a general rule be regarded as a punishment inflicted on each individual for personal sins (see John 9:3). Christ himself, who is without sin, in fulfilling the words of Isaiah took on all the wounds of his passion and shared in all human pain (see Isaiah 53:4-5). Christ is still pained and tormented in his members, made like him. Still, our afflictions seem but momentary and slight when compared to the greatness of the eternal glory for which they prepare us (see 2 Corinthians 4:17).

  • Why the Pope's Blessing on March 27 Will Be Absolutely Unique
    Why the pope’s blessing on March 27 will be absolutely unique We can say that never in history has anything like this happened. How can the pope get closer to believers scattered around the planet at a moment of grave danger? This is a question that Francis undoubtedly reflected upon when the coronavirus began its rapid spread around Italy and the globe. The answer does not consist in live-streaming Mass so that everyone can follow him through the Internet, even though he is in fact doing that each morning. In fact, “following” the celebration of Mass through the media, theologically speaking, is not “participating.” There is no such thing as media sacraments. Mass on television cannot replace the sacrament of the Eucharist. If one cannot attend Mass, watching a televised Mass can be a great spiritual help, but the viewer doesn’t participate in the sacrament. Only a pope What, then, can the pope do to make himself actively present in the life of each member of the faithful? There’s a unique act he can perform: the papal blessing “Urbi et Orbi,” which translates from Latin “to the city [of Rome] and to the world.” FOLLOW THE BLESSING HERE. It’s an act which no other bishop can perform, and which — in contrast to the Mass — can take place effectively through the media, for the good of the souls of the faithful. The Vatican determined some decades ago that those who receive the pope’s “Urbi et Orbi” blessing through a live broadcast are eligible to receive its blessing, just as those physically present in St.

Part I – Introduction There are two main sorts of 'anointing': • spiritual anointing with God's Spirit and • physical anointing with oil. I shall deal with them together because they often go together, and each throws light on the other. Both are of increasing interest among Christians today, especially among those who are rediscovering the importance of the Holy Spirit and/or those who want to deepen and enrich their expressions of the Church's Healing Ministry on Biblical principles. Don't jump ahead to find out what to do, because what Christian anointing means comes first. In other words the 'What?' comes before the 'How?'. We need first to outline the uses of oil in the Bible and the meaning of anointing.

  • Anointed by God What Is Anointing? What Does It Mean to Be Anointed? We Often Hear the Phrase That God Does Not Look for Our Ability but for Our Availability
    Anointed by God What is anointing? What does it mean to be anointed? We often hear the phrase that God does not look for our ability but for our availability. When we avail ourselves to Him, He puts into us His ability to do His work. The impartation of His ability (faith, grace, glory) into our lives to do His work is called ‗the anointing‘. Hebrew word ―Messiah‖ and the Greek word ―chrio‖ are translated to ―anoint‖ which means ―to rub with oil‖ and by implication ―to consecrate for religious service and for overcoming life‖. Oil is symbolic of the Holy Spirit. Anointing means a consecratory gift (to be) anointed, ie. special endowment of the Holy Spirit. Anointed - usually a consecrated person (as a king, priest, or saint); the Christ: the anointed one, the Messiah.(Isa.45:1) Christian or messianic means ―little anointed ones‖. Christian denotes one being a follower/disciple of Christ, or Christ-like. The anointing consecrates and set apart for holy use by God to do specific mission. It makes you strong!(1Co.1:22-31) Anoint describes the procedure of rubbing usually with oil, for the purpose of healing, setting apart. In simple terms, anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit being marked upon someone. It is overflowing life of Jesus which imparts supernatural strength enabling an individual to perform a special task he is called and appointed to. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.(PHI4:13) All through the Bible we read about God calling and anointing people to do his work signify God‘s blessing.

  • On "Chrism" and "Anti-Christs" in Ι John 2:18-27: a Hypothesis
    that a reforming word can be the source of unity in the churches, my confession that by the power of the Spirit the Risen Crucified One acts in the meal, and my urging that the Eucharist should always lead to remembering the poor. But I can hope that this location also may allow something to be seen which might not otherwise have been seen. I can hope that the historical part of this "some­ thing" can be tested in other research and that the theological part might be tested in faith, while both are tested in public discussion. And I can hope that also this location may be responsibly in dia­ logue with what is actually in the Christian sources, perhaps in the process casting some light on the sources themselves. Martin E Connell On "Chrism" and "Anti-Christs" in ι John 2:18-27: A Hypothesis The Gospel and three Letters of John reflect tensions and enmities in the communities for which they were written, but the characters and beliefs of the authors' nemeses separate the evangelist from the letter-writer. Written in the last decade of the first century and redacted in the first decade of the second,1 the Gospel reflects an earlier tension, reckoned as between followers of Jesus and "the Jews." Tensions in the letters are no less virulent, but the strife was by then no longer portrayed as Christians versus the Jews, but as some Christians versus other Christians. By the author's depiction, the enmity portrayed in 1 John is be­ tween members who "remain" and those who "went away" (2:19).
