Anointing of the Sick Mass

A special quarterly event

One of the seven Sacraments, the Anointing of the Sick is the celebration of Christ's loving presence with those who are elderly, chronically ill, or anticipating hospitalization/surgery. Holy Name Cathedral offers communal anointing mass four times a year.

The remaining schedule of Anointing Masses for 2007 are:
Tuesday, June 5th at 5:15 p.m.
Saturday, August 4 at 8:00 a.m.
Tuesday, November 13 at 5:15 p.m.

If you or someone in your household needs the Sacrament at another time, phone (312) 787-8040 to talk with one of our priests. Please pray for the sick.

Communion for the Sick and Homebound

The policy at Holy Name Cathedral for the Eucharist to be carried to a sick or homebound parishioner is as follows: Hosts are not to be obtained during the distribution of Holy Communion, but could be picked up by a Minister of Care after Mass or at an appointed time. If you wish to have a Minister of Care visit, please contact Mary Ann Hoban. Thank you for your cooperation.
