Sacraments
A Sacrament is an outward sign, instituted by Christ, to give grace. Sacraments 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. We invite you to learn more about the Sacraments and how to prepare for and receive them here at Saint John the Baptist.
