The Sacrament of Healing, also known as the Anointing of the Sick, is a ritual in the Christian tradition that provides spiritual and physical healing to individuals facing serious illness or challenges. This sacrament emphasizes God's compassion and the importance of community support during difficult times.
During the sacrament, a priest anoints the sick person with blessed oil and offers prayers for healing and strength. It is intended not only for those near death but also for anyone suffering from significant health issues, reinforcing the belief in God's presence and care in times of suffering.
