SACRAMENT OF THE SICK Please call the parish office at before you go to the hospital. We will celebrate the Anointing of the Sick with you. Masses of Anointing are scheduled twice a year.

If the Mass is for your deceased love one, please let the sacristan or celebrant know that you would like to bring up the gifts. If possible, please call the office beforehand to let us know that you would like to bring up the offertory. SPONSORS AND GODPARENTS The catechism states that the godfather, godmother or sponsor must be firm a believer (No. 1255). The true intent is that the godparent or sponsor be an active, practicing Catholic, who treasures the Catholic faith, provides good example and would joyfully and eagerly be a partner with the parents in raising the child in the faith. The godparent s faith need not be perfect or mature, but it must be valid and active. He/she is fully initiated, attends Mass regularly, and if married, is validly married in the church.
