The sacraments of reconciliation and the anointing of the sick are the Church’s response to our need for healing – both physical and spiritual. The Catholic Update Guide to the Sacraments of Healing examines the healing power of both sacraments, dispels some misconceptions, and provides a historical, practical, and sacramental perspective that blends solid theology with liturgical experience. Drawing on the trusted and popular Catholic Update newsletter, the Catholic Update Guide to the Sacraments of Healing will answer your questions about the sacraments of reconciliation and the anointing of the sick whether you’re new to the Church or need a refresher on these healing gifts.
