The Sacraments are an ongoing conversion, a reconciliation with God and with each other.

There are Seven Sacraments broken into three groupings:

• Group 1 - Sacraments of Initiation

                Baptism, Confirmation and  Eucharist 

(For your information, you must celebrate the Sacrament of Penance before celebrating the Sacrament of Eucharist)

• Group 2 - Sacraments of Healing

                Penance  and  Anointing of the Sick

• Group 3 - Sacraments of Commitment

                Marriage and Holy Orders

Preparation for the Sacraments:

• For Baptism preparation of  children under 8 years of age, we have the Baptism Program

• For children over 8 years of age and for adults, we have the OCI program (Order of Christian Initiation).

• For the preparation of children for the Sacraments of Confirmation,  Reconciliation and  Eucharist (sacraments of initiation) we have the Sacramental Program. Please note, the Sacrament of Penance (Reconciliation) must be celebrated in order to receive the Sacrament of Eucharist.
