Sacraments are outward signs, instituted by Christ, to give grace. They are at the very heart of our Catholic faith. Moments where divine grace enters our lives through ordinary means—water, oil, bread, wine—they are encounters with our God and profound moments of healing, conversion, and new life.
Think of the Sacraments as fuel for your soul. “To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.” (Saint Teresa of Calcutta)
