Sacraments
THE SACRAMENTS COMMUNICATE AN INCARNATE MEMORY, LINKED TO THE TIMES AND PLACES OF OUR LIVES, LINKED TO ALL OUR SENSES. IN THEM THE WHOLE PERSON IS ENGAGED AS A MEMBER OF A LIVING SUBJECT AND PART OF A NETWORK OF COMMUNITARIAN RELATIONSHIPS - POPE FRANCIS
One of the ways the Church lives as the Body of Christ is through the special rituals, we call the Seven Sacraments. Each sacrament is a visible sign of the hidden mystery of God’s love.
In the Sacraments, Jesus acts in and through the ritual. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, the transforming grace of Christ’s action is gifted to those participating. A Sacrament is more than a symbol of a spiritual reality; it makes the spiritual reality present as the Sacrament is celebrated.
