Any parishioner who is in danger of death, meaning their physical condition is so compromised that they may pass away, can request the sacraments at any time, including the Sacrament of the Sick and the Reception of Holy Communion.  At all times, a priest is on call in Pembroke for the Pembroke Regional Hospital and all care homes for our seniors, for this purpose.  Please call, or ask a family member or nurse to call, the switchboard of the Pembroke Regional Hospital and ask that the Roman Catholic priest on call be contacted to visit a seriously ill patient. 

They will be happy to assist! 

Naturally, what matters most in celebrating the sacraments, is not 'who' the priest is who presides, but the Lord whom we encounter. Because of a variety of commitments it is not always possible for your own parish priest to attend during an unexpected emergency.
