Sacraments

​

As is stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church "The sacraments are efficacious signs of grace, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church, by which divine life is dispensed to us. the visible rites by which the sacraments are celebrated signify and make present the graces proper to each sacrament. They bear fruit in those who receive them with the required dispositions.."

Anointing of the sick and Viaticum


Anointing

This is offered to someone who is ill and in need of prayer for the healing of the body and soul.  Often times when someone is in the hospital recovering from an illness or surgery this is when they most need the prayers of the community.  Anointing goes back to the time of the Apostles when the elders of the church would anoint the sick and pray for them
  

Hospital visits and Anointing should be scheduled during normal business hours by calling the church office at (562) 455-1112

 


Viático o Santos Oleos
 

This is the preparation for the journey to Heaven.  This is done when someone is in grave danger of pending death.  It is the opportunity to partake of the body of Christ and commend the spirit to our Heavenly Father.   When the person is unable to partake of the Eucharist, consecrated wine is also permissible. 


If there is an eminent danger of death, you may contact Fr. Fermin Melchor directly at 619 665-4081 If your loved one is in emminant danger of death you may call this number at any time of the day


There is no charge for these services.  if you wish to make a donation at a latter time to the church you may do so by mailing it in or using the donation link below.  This will allow us to continue our ministry.
