As are the last rites, and/or annointing of the sick.

That actually brings up another thing which we do which you may not be aware. We also anoint the sick if they request it, but it's not something which is talked about very much. If a member of the Church requests to be anointed with oil by the elders of the Church, then a special service is held where the elders anoint the sick and the entire Church prays over them for God's will to be done. It's not done very often, but it is still done.

That’s a very nice thing for the protestant church(es) to offer, and Biblical.
