Our next lesson is on the Sacraments. What is a sacrament?
According to CatholicReference.net a sacrament is:
A sensible sign, instituted by Jesus Christ, by which invisible grace and inward sanctification are communicated to the soul. The essential elements of a sacrament of the New Law are institution by Christ the God-man during his visible stay on earth, and a sensibly perceptible rite that actually confers the supernatural grace it symbolizes.
I don't quite understand this. Do you? I am really looking forward to our lesson!
The Catholic Church recognizes seven sacraments. Can you name them all? Hint: One is NOT "Last Rites."
