The Office of Worship, in collaboration with the Office for Clergy, offers this important update for priests and their role in the new translation of the Order of Anointing of the Sick coming soon, and this comprehensive workshop gives you everything you need to implement it faithfully and effectively. Led by specialists in a variety of fields, this engaging day will deepen your understanding and sharpen your ministry across four essential areas. Whether you anoint in hospitals, nursing homes, or parish settings, you’ll walk away inspired, informed, and ready to bring Christ’s healing presence to those who need it most.

What You’ll Gain – Four Key Topics Designed for Real Ministry:

• Ritual Changes: Get acquainted with the new texts, prayers, and rites.

• End-of-Life Moral Ethics: Navigating complex situations with clarity discernment around withdrawing treatment, euthanasia, palliative care.

• Pastoral Care & Sensitivity: Enhance your ability to offer comfort, hope, and dignity to the sick, the dying, and grieving families.

• Canon Law: Understand the legal framework, who may receive the sacrament, when it can be repeated, and your faculties as a priest.

Why Attend:

• Expert teaching with clear, practical, and real-life examples.
• Hands-on review and open discussion with fellow priests.
• Immediate takeaways you can use the very next time you anoint.

This isn’t just an update session, it’s a renewal of your healing ministry. In one day, you’ll grow in confidence, compassion, and competence, ensuring every anointing you celebrate is a powerful encounter with Christ the Healer.
