How Do I:
Request pastoral care when hospitalized?
At MaineGeneral Health in Augusta:
When registering, or by asking your nurse, please request to be listed as "Roman Catholic" to assure pastoral care (e.g. Holy Communion and/or Anointing of the Sick) from the Catholic chaplain at the hospital.
At Inland Hospital in Waterville:
There is no Catholic Chaplain on staff at Inland Hospital. If you would like a visit from one of our priests for the Anointing of the Sick please call the Parish Office, 872-2281.
Please note: Due to Federal regulations (HIPAA) protecting patient privacy and confidentiality, hospitals cannot release any patient information (such as religious preference) in the hospital directory without patient consent.
Schedule a Mass Intention?
Please come to the Parish Office at 70 Pleasant St. in Waterville (small, white building behind Sacred Heart Church) Monday - Thursday between 8:00am and 4:00pm or Friday between 8:00am and noon. If available you may request a specific date and Mass. Mass Intentions are $10.
Have my child Baptized?
