Fr. John Paul Erickson joins Patrick to discuss Anointing of the Sick
What was it like for Father to administer the anointing of the sick during Covid times?
(6:39) what is the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick?
Bret – Some parishes have sessions of anointing of the sick. Is that allowed?
(13:51) Walt - I have a sister in law who is not catholic and dying of cancer. If a non-Catholic requests it, can it be granted?
Theresa - My granddaughter received a miracle hearing. She had seizures. It was my time to get anointed (I'm elderly) and a lady followed us and I asked Father to anoint my granddaughter. Said no because she isn't catholic, so I just anointed her myself. Started to be healed a week later.

(22:54) Break 1
A woman writes in about getting anointed before an emergency C section and everything went well.
(26:59) Scott - My son is having a surgery to remove his tousles. Would it be appropriate to have him get anointed? He has down syndrome?
Margaret - Talking about niece and anointing of sick...Could you get anointing of the sick for someone who is on the autistic spectrum?
(35:18) Robert - One of my best mates was to be anointed. He died 24 hours later. I think it was a great blessing.

(39:56) Break 2
Johnny - Is it different from the apostolic pardon?
(43:02) Tom - I was in a hospital in '23. Almost died. Priest gave me the sacrament and I popped up immediately. Still alive today!
Bella - My brother in law is baptized and has all the sacraments. Has leukemia, but refusing to see a priest or the sacraments. Any advice how to take it from here.
(47:01) Cynthia - I went through an experience with my brother who had cancer. Pain out of control. Priest came and at first wasn’t going to receive communion. 15 minutes later we got a room and it was like my brother wasn't sick. Our Lord was so generous.
What if you aren’t sure if you can receive the anointing of the sick?
