Sacraments

Christ instituted the sacraments of the new law.

Sacraments

A Sacrament is a summoning that was instituted by Christ, that brings us into a deeper relationship with Him. The Catholic Church holds that there are seven sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation, Holy Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Marriage, and Holy Orders. These acts or rites were instituted by Christ himself for the purpose of bestowing grace upon us, that we might enter into a deeper relationship with Him. The word Sacrament comes from the Latin word sacramentum, which means “a sign of the sacred.” The seven sacraments are ceremonies that point to what is sacred and significant for us as Christians. They are special occasions for experiencing God’s saving presence. To learn more, please read below or feel free to speak with our priests on Sunday. If you learn more about the sacraments, you can celebrate them more fully.
