IN BRIEF
1532 The special grace of the
sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick has as its effects:
– the uniting of the sick person to the passion of Christ, for his own good and
that of the whole Church;
– the strengthening, peace, and courage to endure in a Christian manner the
sufferings of illness or old age;
– the forgiveness of sins, if the sick person was not able to obtain it through
the sacrament of Penance;
– the restoration of health, if it is conducive to the salvation of his soul;
– the preparation for passing over to eternal life.
