Healing Service - Augusta

St. Michael Parish will hold a healing service and anointing of the sick at St. Mary of the Assumption Church in Augusta on Sunday, February 23, at 2 p.m.

The sacrament of the anointing of the sick is for all who face a serious illness or surgery or who are impaired by old age. In this sacrament of anointing, Christ strengthens our faith and bestows God’s grace in a time of anxiety and pain.

Suffering and illness affect us in body and spirit. If one member suffers in the body of Christ, which is the Church, all the members suffer with that member. In times of frailty, sickness, treatment, or surgeries the parish family assures the infirmed of our care and support through our prayer, personal visits and the sacrament of the anointing of the sick.
