Summary/Abstract: Palliative care aims to assist the person in his passing from this world in a dignified way. Suffering is not only a painful reality of life but also a redemptive dimension. The study aims to highlight the theological dimension of the moment of the end of life beyond the secularised practice. The Church, as a spiritual hospital, has the means to transform suffering from a burden into a blessing, from a curse into a blessing. From the perspective of the sacerdotal work on the dying, its threedimensions, of the person, of communion and eschatological open the way to the catharsis of suffering in the perspective of eternity.
