The Sacraments of Initiation – Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist – are the foundation of the Christian life.
By Baptism we become members of the Church, the Body of Christ.
In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is"sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit" and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ.
We call our reception of Christ in the Eucharist “Holy Communion,” for through our reception of his Body and Blood we come into communion with him who is All-Holy.
