Well, I’m excited in a sad, depressing sort of way. I just got of the phone with the new pastor. Poor guy. Hasn’t even had a chance to hang his rosary beads, and he’s already got a mom on the phone asking about Anointing of the Sick for her child.
He agreed that a biopsy was a good reason to do the sacrament. He said he’d try to track down the oils and call me back to set up a good time.
So, Fritz will receive a sacrament that I’ve never received – his third sacrament this year. I think that’s pretty neat.
Of course, I’d rather not feel the need for him to have it either.
