Sacrament of Holy Unction at Christ the Saviour - 04/16/14
On Wednesday, April 16th, the communities of Christ the Saviour and Holy Apostles Mission, gathered to celebrate the service of Holy Unction - interceding the Lord’s mercy, and healing of soul and body. Fr. Timothy Hojnicki offered a beautiful homily, which prepared each of us to realize our own spiritual sicknesses and poverty, and to ask the Lord for healing!
Excerpt from the Third Prayer of Holy Unction
Yes, Lord, send forth from heaven Thy healing power; touch the body, quench the fever, calm the suffering and chase away every lurking infirmity. Be the physician of Thy servants; raise them up from their bed of pain and their couch of distress; give them to Thy Church safe and sound, well-pleasing to Thee and doing Thy will.
