THE SACRAMENTS

The whole liturgical life of the Church revolves around the Eucharistic sacrifice and the sacraments. There are seven sacraments in the Church:  Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony.

Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist — are called the sacraments of Christian initiation and lay the foundation of every Christian life.

     “Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments.  Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as children of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission.”  (CCC 1213)
