The performance of the common Mass is undoubtedly a beneficial thing, a means of pastoral care, a way to bring and keep the faithful connected to the Church and a work to go out to meet and solve their spiritual needs. In this regard, it would be desirable to preserve the character and destination of the service as a healing and sanctifying work and not to transform it into a means of solving all the problems and difficulties of life, of fulfilling any desires, substituting other mysteries, hierarchies and works sanctifying, trivializing it and lowering it to the level of a simple release or prayer.
The correct execution of the public Mass must include all its order, namely the reading of the seven pericopes from the Apostle and from the Gospel, the seven special prayers and the formula said at the same time as the seven anointings with consecrated oil that are administered to those who are physically and mentally infirm .
We must know, however, that by performing the Holy Mass and by our participation in this service, the Sacrament of Confession is not replaced. This way of understanding has become so widespread that Maslul is no longer perceived as an ordinance for the physical and spiritual healing of the seriously ill, but is interpreted as a general healing service, which has nothing to do with any specific illness . Such an understanding leads to an almost complete loss of the real meaning of the Mystery. In this context, the distinction between the Eucharist and Confession is obscured, and this gives the faithful an excuse to avoid confession altogether.
Otherwise, the Sacrament of the Holy Mass as a liturgical celebration, performed in the Church, with as many believers present as possible, is beneficial and to be encouraged. Where possible, the sick should be brought to the Church, to the Holy Maslu of the community. Thus, the sick can be reintegrated into the life of the Church, encouraged by the family and all the members of the Church. All will pray together and for the sick, while the ministering priest or priests will lay hands on them and anoint them with holy oil. This event is deeply ecclesial and communal, as the whole Church is involved in welcoming new members into the Church at Baptism, and now shows its solidarity and serves its members at a difficult time in their lives.
In doing so, the meaning and implications of this ordinance become more and more evident, both for the patient and for the parish community. The latter expresses its love, care and attention for one or more of its members. Together with the priests, they bring and announce the Gospel message of forgiveness and healing, thus being partakers of the priesthood and the ministry of Christ. And the sick who receive this Sacrament are given the opportunity to be martyrs, to testify before the whole community that suffering ultimately leads to the Cross. They are reconciled to God and to the whole body of Christ, the Church, and the real meaning and dignity of their lives as Christians is reaffirmed.
Anointing of the sick, known also by other names such as unction, is a form of religious anointing or "unction" (an older term with the same meaning) for the benefit of a sick person.
It is practiced by many Christian churches and denominations.
In the Eastern Orthodox Church, the service of the Sacrament of Holy Unctionis served on Wednesday.
The reception of the Holy Mystery (sacrament) of Unction is not limited to those who are enduring physical illness.
The Mystery is given for healing (both physical and spiritual) and for the forgiveness of sin.
For this reason, it is normally required that one go to confession before receiving Unction.
Because it is a Sacred Mystery of the Church, only Orthodox Christians may receive it.
The solemn form of Eastern Christian anointing requires the ministry of up to seven priests.
A table is prepared, upon which is set a vessel containing wheat.
Into the wheat has been placed an empty shrine-lamp, seven candles, and seven anointing brushes.
Candles are distributed for all to hold during the service.
The rite begins with reading Psalm 50 (the great penitential psalm), followed by the chanting of a special canon.
After this, the senior priest (or bishop) pours pure olive oil and a small amount of wine into the shrine lamp, and says the "Prayer of the Oil".
This prayer calls upon God to "...sanctify this Oil, that it may be effectual for those who shall be anointed therewith, unto healing, and unto relief from every passion, every malady of the flesh and of the spirit, and every ill..."
Then follow seven series of epistles, gospels, long prayers, Ektenias (litanies) and anointings.
Each series is served by one of the seven priests in turn.
The afflicted one is anointed with the sign of the cross on seven places: the forehead, the nostrils, the cheeks, the lips, the breast, the palms of both hands, and the back of the hands
After the last anointing, the Gospel Book is opened and placed with the writing down upon the head of the one who was anointed, and the senior priest reads the "Prayer of the Gospel".
At the end, the anointed kisses the Gospel, the Cross and the right hands of the priests, receiving their blessing.
Anointing is considered to be a public rather than a private sacrament, and so as many of the faithful who are able are encouraged to attend.
It should be celebrated in the church when possible, but if this is impossible, it may be served in the home or hospital room of the afflicted.
Anointing may also be given during Forgiveness Vespers and Great Week, on Great and Holy Wednesday, to all who are prepared.
Those who receive Unction on Holy Wednesday should go to Holy Communion on Great Thursday.
The significance of receiving Unction on Holy Wednesday is shored up by the hymns in the Triodion for that day, which speak of the sinful woman who anointed the feet of Christ.
Just as her sins were forgiven because of her penitence, so the faithful are exhorted to repent of their sins.
