Sacraments

Baptism

Baptism is the basis of the Christian life. Through it, we are freed from sin and reborn as sons and daughters of God.

Reconciliation

Reconciliation (also known as Confession) was initiated by Christ as a way to cleanse our souls of sins and to make amends with our Lord.

Communion

The Eucharist is the true Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Through it, we unite ourselves with the heavenly liturgy and anticipate eternal life

 

Confirmation

Confirmation strengthens the grace of Baptism and commits the baptized to become witnesses of Christ by word and deed and to spread and defend the faith.

Anointing of the Sick

The Lord himself showed great concern for the bodily and spiritual welfare of the sick and commanded his followers to do likewise.

Marriage

Marriage is the Sacrament by which a baptized man and a woman freely establish between themselves a union - partnership - of the whole of life.

Holy Orders

Through Holy Orders, the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time.
