Union with the passion of Christ. By the grace of this sacrament the sick
person receives the strength and the gift of uniting himself more closely to
Christ’s Passion: in a certain way he is consecrated to bear fruit by

original sin, acquires a new meaning; it becomes a participation in the saving
work of Jesus.
