Objects of The Guild
​1. Intercessory prayer for the dying and for the repose of the souls of the departed.

2. To promote the two great doctrines of the Christian Creed: “The Communion of Saints’’ and “The Resurrection of the Dead’’. 

The following are particularly commended to the prayers of members. 
(a) The restoration of the scriptural rite of anointing the sick with holy oil, commonly called Holy Unction.
(b) The restoration of the primitive custom of reserving the Holy Eucharist for the sick and dying.
​
​

To Pray must also mean to care.
As members of this devotional Guild we are called to care for
the sick, the dying, the departed and the bereaved.
