How to be an Orthodox Christian - Holy Unction: The Healing of Soul and Body [EP. 15]

About this sermon

Around a small table set with wheat, an unlit lamp, seven cotton-wrapped wands, and the book of the Gospels, seven priests gather to do one of the oldest things the Christian Church does — and, Dcn Seraphim suggests, the single most ignored sacrament in the modern West. Beginning from the plain apostolic command of James 5 — "Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church" — he shows that Holy Unction (the Euchelaion, "the oil of prayer") has been practiced without interruption since the time of the Apostles.
