THE SACRAMENT OF THE HOLY UNCTION AT THE PATRIARCHATE

On Holy Wednesday evening, April 11/24, 2019, the Sacrament of the Holy Unction was held at the Monastic Church of Saints Constantine and Helen, as a spiritual preparation and sanctification for the Holy Communion of Holy Thursday, and the remaining days of the Holy Week. The Service was officiated by our Father and Patriarch of Jerusalem Theophilos with Archibishops as His co-celebrants.

At the end of the Sacrament His Beatitude and the Archbishops anointed each other and then they anointed the great crowd of the faithful who attended the service.
