Sacraments

Baptism

Baptism is the first sacrament celebrated in the Catholic Church.  The symbols are a white robe, water, oil, baptismal candle and sign of the cross. 

·     The parents and godparents bring forward the baby to be baptized. 

·     The priest asks questions such as “Do you believe in God.”

·     The priest pours water over the baby 3 times.

·     The priest makes a sign of the cross with oil.

·     The baptismal candle is lit as a sign of new life.

Reconciliation

Reconciliation is when we make peace with God for the things 

we have done wrong.

1. Think about what I have done wrong.

2. Be sorry for my sins.


3. Make up my mind not to sin again.


4. Confess my sins to the priest.


5. Do the penance the priest gives me."

Confirmation

Confirmation confirms the promises made during baptism.  The dove is a symbol of the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit came to the apostles during Pentecost and gave them courage to practice their faith.  During Confirmation, a sponsor lays a hand on the candidate’s shoulder while the bishop makes a sign of the cross on the forehead using oil.  He says, “Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit.” 

Eucharist

Holy Communion is the most important of all the sacraments.  It is celebrated during the mass where the bread and wine is changed to become the body and blood of Jesus.  Just as Jesus celebrated his final meal with his friends, we come together to celebrate with our community.   

The Sacraments

This week we are looking at the sacrament of Baptism.  Jesus was baptised by John, his cousin.
