Concerning the Sacraments of the Church and how they act as a channel of Grace in our lives, this talk on the Sacrament of the Sick is the thirty fourth in a series of lectures on the Catholic Catechism recorded in 1965 by Archbishop Fulton J Sheen in the privacy of his own study and first broadcast under the title 'Life is Worth Living'. A master communicator, Fulton Sheen recorded this insightful overview of the teachings of the Holy Catholic Church.
The sacrament of Extreme Unction, or the sacrament of the sick, acts to do away with all traces of sin and return the body to health, if it is God’s will. The sacrament is given when someone is seriously ill but not necessarily dying. It is more concerned with sickness than with death.
