Sacrament of Reconciliation
If possible, the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) should precede the Anointing of the Sick. The priest will offer this opportunity during the visit.
Holy Communion
The priest may also bring Holy Communion during the visit. Our parish also has Extraordinary Ministers who bring communion to the homebound regularly.
" Being involved with Saint Ambrose makes a lot of sense. It's a way to work together and support our community. For me it is the right thing to do and when you do the right thing, the rest follows. Saint Ambrose has been a good partner for my company and is good for our community.
