Sacraments

- Sacrament of Baptism
  "Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: 'Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.'" (C.C.C. 1213)
  
  Requirements:
  Initial Steps: Please bring the following items by the 20th of the month prior to the Baptism:

- Eucharist and Sacrament
  The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. (CCC 1324)
  The liturgical life of the Church revolves around the sacraments, with the Eucharist at the center (National Directory for Catechesis, #35). At Mass, we are fed by the Word and nourished by the Body and Blood of Christ. We believe that the Risen Jesus is truly and substantially present in the Eucharist. The Eucharist is not a sign or symbol of Jesus; rather we receive Jesus himself in and through the Eucharistic species. The priest, through the power of his ordination and the action of the Holy Spirit, transforms the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus. This is call transubstantiation.
  By the consecration the transubstantiation of the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ is brought about. Under the consecrated species of bread and wine Christ himself, living and glorious, is present in a true, real, and substantial manner: his Body and his Blood, with his soul and his divinity. (CCC 1413)
  Your child must be age seven and older
  Your child must be in the Faith Formation program

- Sacrament of Confirmation
  At Confirmation we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit and confirm our baptismal promises. Greater awareness of the grace of the Holy Spirit is conferred through the anointing of chrism oil and the laying on of hands by the Bishop.
  
  Confirmation perfects Baptismal grace; it is the sacrament which gives the Holy Spirit in order to root us more deeply in the divine filiation, incorporate us more firmly into Christ, strengthen our bond with the Church, associate us more closely with her mission, and help us bear witness to the Christian faith in words accompanied by deeds. (CCC 1316)
  
  Through the Sacrament of Confirmation we renew our baptismal promises and commit to living a life of maturity in the Christian faith. As we read in the Lumen Gentium (the Dogmatic Constitution of the Church) from the Second Vatican Council
  
  Bound more intimately to the Church by the sacrament of confirmation, [the baptized] are endowed by the Holy Spirit with special strength; hence they are more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith both by word and by deed as true witnesses of Christ. (no. 11)
  
  If your child is between twelve and seventeen years of old, please register your child in our Youth Group Program.
  
  If you are seeking Confirmation for your child who is older than high school age or for yourself please contact Stephanie Moran, Director of our RCIA Program.

- Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick
  The Anointing of the Sick may be celebrated anywhere: at home, in a hospital, on a battlefield, etc. The reason for this is that the celebration of the sacrament is not a private action involving only the priest and the sick person. It is a communal action involving the whole body of Christ. As Saint Paul explains:
  
  There is no division in the body .... If one part of the body suffers, all the other parts suffer with it.
  1 Corinthians 12:25-26
  
  Elsewhere Paul compares the body of Christ to the human body. If one member is sick, the entire body is affected in a spiritual way. It is fitting, therefore, that others (especially family and friends of the sick person) be present during the celebration of the sacrament.

- Sacrament of Marriage
  "What God has united man will not separate" Mt 19, 6.
  What does the Sacrament of Marriage mean?
  The sacrament of Matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. It gives spouses the grace to love each other with the love with which Christ has loved his Church; the grace of the sacrament thus perfects the human love of the spouses, strengthens their indissoluble unity, and sanctifies them on the way to eternal life (cf Council of Trent: DS 1799)

- The Sacrament of Holy Orders
  Holy Orders is the sacrament by which Bishops, Priests and Deacons are ordained and receive the power and grace to perform their sacred duties. The sacred rite by which orders are conferred is called ordination. The apostles were ordained by Jesus at the Last Supper so that others could share in his priesthood.
  
  Holy Orders, which was instituted by Christ himself, is administered by the laying on of hands by the Bishop, through which the Priest is given the power to serve the Church through his preaching, teaching and celebration of the Sacraments.
