Yes it will! Confession is a healing Sacrament! 🙂

God bless you…

When I lived up north, for many years I attended a Day of Reflection once a month that included two conferences, a “healing” Mass (all Masses are healing if we are receptive!), sharing with others of their healings.

The greatest healings are spiritual healings. People shared about being healed of resentment, anger, and unforgiveness of what others had done to hurt them. There are healings we need that we do not even understand about, but the Holy Spirit does. Many have been hurt in various ways in their childhood, and need healing from that…with the grace of forgiveness.

The Carmelite priest that gave these retreats had a great charism of spiritual direction. His conferences were on the mystical doctors of the Church, St. John of the Cross, St. Teresa of Avila, and St. Therese of Lisieux.
Over a period of about seven years, he monthly gave retreats on other subjects as well, such as the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit.

He also blessed oil, water, and salt for us to bring home and use these sacramentals. This oil that he blessed was a sacramental, not a Sacrament. The oil used for the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick is blessed annually at the Cathedral for that purpose alone, along with others oils such as for Confirmation and Baptism. He made sure that we understood this.

So…A priest prayed over me and anointed my forehead and my hands with oil…would I not assume that is an anointing of the sick? Especially when they announced it at the end of the Healing Mass?

Annabelle,

Your mentioning that it was announced at the end of the Mass that it was the Anointing of the Sick …then that is what it was.

I apologize if that was already said and I did not take notice of it.
