Sacraments

The saving words and deeds of Jesus Christ are the foundation of what he would communicate in the Sacraments through the ministers of the Church. Guided by the Holy Spirit, the Church recognizes the existence of Seven Sacraments instituted by the Lord:

Baptism 

Eucharist 

Confirmation

Marriage

Penance (Confession)

Anointing of the Sick (formerly known as Last Rites)

Holy Orders

Through the Sacraments, God shares his holiness with us so that we, in turn, can make the world holier
