This is the first Sacrament of Initiation. Baptism is the first step on the path to becoming a Christian. It symbolizes our New Beginning as followers of Christ and members of the church.
The second Sacrament of Initiation involves receiving the Body of Christ which He gave up for us along with his blood, soul, and divinity. This signifies our union with Christ and the Church; therefore, it is important to properly prepare ourselves before receiving it.
This is the final Sacrament of Initiation. Confirmation often signifies the fulfillment of the promises made at Baptism. When we receive this sacrament, we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit and reinforce one’s bond with the church and spirituality.
Penance, also known as Reconciliation, is a time for us to cleanse ourselves or remove any obstacles from our life that block us from living a life of faith. We do this by examining our conscience and self-reflecting.
Anyone who is sick, suffering or hospitalized should receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the sick.
