Prayer. Although baptism, confirmation, holy orders, and anointing of the sick are separate and unique sacraments, there are two common components to each. An imposition (or laying on) of hands and the anointing with sacred oil (usually chrism) are the two primary commonalties. Throughout Church history, there has been some form of anointing. The anointing is always to fortify the recipient. Anointing also solidifies the body and soul, which are temples of the Holy Spirit.
