Read James 5:14-15 in the NABRE onlineIs any man sick among you? Let him bring in the priests of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith shall save the sick man: and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he be in sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Reflection
The scriptural root of the anointing of the sick. Healing here is asked for in company — you are not meant to pray alone in an illness.
