Red-c Roundup

On Wednesday, June 22, host Judy Comeaux spoke with the pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Bryan about the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. Fr. Brian especially emphasized that Anointing is not reserved to those who are in danger of death. It is a sacrament of healing—rooted in Scripture and instituted by Christ like all the sacraments—meant for any Catholic who is about to undergo major surgery, carries the cross of a chronic disease, or faces the burden of a regular treatment regimen for their disease. He explained that Catholics should also make sure that they are availing themselves not only of the sacrament of anointing regularly, but doing so in combination with regular confession. Remember, when choosing between the values of heaven and the values of earth, always round up!
