From the desk of Fr. Robert Franco

from the bulletin for October 4, 2026

The most recent message from Fr. Bob is always available in the bulletin.

Dear Parishioners,

Earlier this week I taught about the Sacraments to the St. Peter Grade School fifth graders. I categorized them in three groups: Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist), Sacraments of Mission (Holy Orders and Matrimony) and Sacraments of Healing (Penance and the Anointing of the Sick).

The final sacrament, the Anointing of the Sick, is perhaps the least understood. Formerly known by the intimidating name Extreme Unction—a Latin phrase meaning Final Anointing—it has been understood more fully since Vatican II. It is not merely the final sacrament before death, but also a sacrament of healing for the living.

Before I go any further, let me remind people that the public ministry of Jesus was noted for healing. He healed because he loved people. It also testified to that fact that Jesus is the Son of God. When he was sending out his disciples for “field education”, Jesus commanded them to heal the sick. The early Church continued this ministry of healing.

This ministry of healing continues to take place in several ways through the Church. First, healing happens through medical professionals. The Church pioneered the founding of hospitals because it wanted to continue to care for the sick. Secondly, healing is a gift of the Holy Spirit, for which we ought to pray for. (See I Corinthians 12:9, 31a). Thirdly, healing comes to us through the intercession of the Saints. One of Mary’s titles in the Litany of Loretto is Health of the Sick. Finally, Jesus left us a sacrament of healing called the Anointing of the Sick. St. James writes:

Is anyone among you sick? He should summon the presbyters of the church, and they should pray over him and anoint [him] with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven. This recalls Mark 6:13 which records that the Apostles “drove out many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them.

The Church now celebrates this sacrament with people who are either seriously ill, have a serious chronic illness or are elderly. St. Peter and St. Julie Parishes will be celebrating the Anointing of the Sick within next weekend’s Masses. At St. Julie Parish, this will take place at the 5:00 PM Mass on Saturday and the 11:00 AM on Sunday. At St. Peter Parish, this will take place at the 4:00 PM Mass on Saturday and the Noon Mass on Sunday. Even if you are not receiving this sacrament at these Masses, please come and pray for your needier brothers and sisters.

St. Julie Parish received a grant through the State of Ohio for the upgrading of its security. Installation of new locking mechanisms and cameras will begin next week. I ask you to be patient with any inconvenience this may cause you. If you have any questions, please email them to: stjuliesaftey@gmail.com. You may also contact Christine Vacca.

In Christ,

Fr. Bob
