You're listening to the SSPX podcast and welcome to episode 12 in our sacrament series and our first episode on the Sacrament of Xtremonction.

Father Stephen Ruder will join us to give an introduction into this often misunderstood sacrament.

While it can seem that this sacrament is sad, and indeed it is given when a loved one is close to death,

we'll look more closely at what this sacrament

can give to a soul as they are about to enter eternity.

And we'll see that instead of bringing sadness, extreme unction brings peace and even joy

to these final moments.

Of course, we'll look at what the sacrament is, the form, the matter, the minister, etc.,

but we'll also discuss some practical aspects to the sacrament.

Likely at some point in our lives, we'll need to make a decision on when to call a priest for a loved one.

We'll answer those questions and more over the next 45 minutes.
