The Gospels relate many stories of the sick coming to Jesus for healing. Besides laying His hands on them in prayer, our Lord also made use of clay, spittle and water to impart healing power. On other occasions, the simple act of touching His garments brought health and wholeness. In the Sacrament of the anointing of the Sick, Christ continues His ministry of spiritual and physical healing.
When is it available?
