Parish Sick List
Parish Sick List
In the context of the Catholic Church, the terms "sick and housebound" refer to individuals who are unwell or unable to attend regular church services due to illness, disability, or other health-related reasons.
The Church recognizes the pastoral care needs of these individuals and has specific ministries and practices in place to provide spiritual support and connection to the faith community.
The Catholic Church emphasizes the importance of caring for the spiritual well-being of all its members, including those who are unable to actively participate in the regular life of the parish due to illness or being housebound.
Pastoral care for the sick and housebound is a way for the Church to extend its community and express compassion and solidarity with those facing health challenges.
