I. Its Foundations in the Economy of Salvation

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1509
“Heal the sick!”¹²⁰ The Church has received this charge from
the Lord and strives to carry it out by taking care of the sick as well as by
accompanying them with her prayer of intercession. She believes in the
life-giving presence of Christ, the physician of souls and bodies. This
presence is particularly active through the sacraments, and in an altogether
special way through the Eucharist, the bread that gives eternal life and that
St. Paul suggests is connected with bodily health.¹²¹
