The seven sacraments are a gift from God, instituted by Christ and given to His Church to bring grace to us at all stages of our Christian life.
Sacraments of Christian Initiation
The sacraments of Christian Initiation unite the Christian faithful to Jesus Christ’s body, the Church. The faithful are born anew by Baptism, strengthened through Confirmation, and receive spiritual nourishment through the Eucharist.
Despite the new life, strength and continual nourishment received through the sacraments of Christian Initiation, we are weakened and even break our communion with Jesus by our sin. The sacraments of Healing reunite us with Jesus and cleanse our body and soul.
