 Aside from Jesus perform
miracles, Jesus Christ saved
us from our sins by
sacrificing his own life. All
these things can be
reflected from the seven
sacraments of the Holy
Catholic church. Do you
know the seven sacraments?
 The 7
Sacraments
 The 7
Sacraments
I t i s di vi ded i nto 3 categories:
1. The sacraments of i ni ti ati on
2. The sacraments of heal i ng
3. The sacraments at the
servi ce of communi on
 The Sacraments
of INITIATION
Chri sti an i ni ti ati on is the
process of becomi ng a member
of the Cathol i c Church.
1.Baptism is the first
sacrament Catholics receive.
At Baptism we are sealed as
belonging to Christ. In the
Sacrament of Baptism, we are
welcomed into the Church and
become children of God.
Although many Catholics may
be baptized as infants or
young children, a person can
be baptized at any age.
During the Sacrament of
Baptism, the immersion
into water symbolizes that
the person being baptized
dies to sin and reset to
new life in Christ, purified
and sanctified. In
B a p t i s m, w e a r e f r e e d
from original sins and our
p e r s o n a l s i n s a r e f o r g i v e n.
2. In Eucharist, we receive Jesus
Christ, the Bread of Life, in Holy
Communion and are nourished by
the Word of God. The grace first
received at Baptism grows in
those celebrating the sacrament
and they are more closely joined
to Christ and one another as the
Body of Christ, the Church, and
strengthened to serve God and
care for the needs of others.
3. In the Sacrament of
Confirmation, we are
sealed with the Gift of the
Holy Spirit. Confirmation
deepens the grace received
at Baptism, and like Baptism
we receive the Sacrament
of Confirmation only once.
Confirmation strengthens us
to live as Christ’s followers.
 The Sacraments
of HEALING
I n these sacraments, the Church
cel ebrates Jesus’ heal i ng power.
Jesus gave hi s Apostl es the power
to forgi ve si ns and heal the sick in
hi s name.
4. The Sacrament of the
Anointing of the Sick
is offered to those who
are very sick or near
death. Family, friends,
and parish members
gather to pray for God’s
healing and mercy.
5. In Reconciliation, members
of the Church are reconciled
with God and with the Church.
In this sacrament, those who
are truly sorry confess their sins
and priests forgive the sins in
the name of Christ and the
Church through the power of
the Holy Spirit. The Sacrament
of Penance and Reconciliation
strengthens or renews grace.
 The Sacraments at the
SERVICE OF COMMUNION
Those who receive these
sacraments are strengthened to
serve God and the Church through
a particular vocation.
6. In Holy Orders, baptized
men are ordained to serve the
Catholic Church as deacons,
priests, and bishops. Through
this sacrament, the Catholic
Church continues the mission of
that Jesus Christ first gave to
the Apostles - the special
mission of preaching the Good
News and leading and serving
the Catholic Church.
7. In the Sacrament of
Matrimony, a man and woman
become husband and wife and
promise to by faithful to each
other for the rest of their
lives. Matrimony unites a
married couple as loving
partners and strengthens them
to live out their promises to
Christ and to one another.
 In summary,
Sacraments are effecti ve signs given
to us by Jesus through which we share
i n God’ s l i fe and the most important
cel ebrati ons of the Church.
