SACRAMENTS

Jesus' chosen way of gifting His life of grace
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS
Picture
Holy Orders
​Sacrament of Service

In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, or Ordination, the priest being ordained vows to lead other Catholics by fringing them the sacraments, by proclaiming the Gospel, and by providing other means to holiness.

Matrimony​
​Sacrament of Service

​The Sacrament of Marriage is a public sign that one gives oneself totally to this other person. It is also a public statement about God: the loving union of husband and wife speaks of family values and also God's values.

Baptism
Sacrament of Initiation​

​The Sacrament of Baptism is the first step in a lifelong journey of commitment and discipleship. Whether we are baptized as infants or adults, Baptism is the Church's way of celebrating and enacting the embrace of God.

Reconciliation
Sacrament of Healing​​

The Sacrament of Reconciliation (also know as Penance) has three elements: conversion, confession and celebration. In it we find God's unconditional forgiveness; as a result we are called to forgive others.

Holy Communion​
Sacrament of Initiation

​Catholics believe the Eucharist or Communion, is both a sacrifice and a meal. We believe in the real presence of Jesus who died for our sins. As we receive Christ's Body and Blood, we also are nourished spiritually and brought close to God.

Anointing Of The Sick
Sacrament of Healing
The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick, formerly known as Last Rites or Extreme Unction, is a ritual of healing appropriate not only for physical but also for mental and spiritual sickness.
Confirmation
​Sacrament of Initiation​

Confirmation is a Sacrament of mature commitment and a deepening of baptismal gifts. It is one of the three Sacraments of initiations. It is most often associated with the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
