Blessing of the Sick

Since the 1880s, the Capuchin friars at St. Bonaventure have invited those suffering from illness or infirmity to pray for healing. That tradition continues today as the friars continue to hold a Blessing of the Sick Service every Wednesday and Sunday at 2:00 p.m. that includes intercessions and a blessing with a relic of the True Cross. The Blessing of the Sick is also livestreamed on Wednesdays.
