title: The Sacraments We Celebrate: A Catholic Guide to the Seven Mysteries of Faith
author:  Peter J. Vaghi 
description: &#34;Get ready for this work not only to form your mind, but also to touch your heart and soul. I'm afraid we Catholics take our sacramental life for granted. If you want a booster shot for a faith in the sacraments that has become a bit listless, keep on reading. Thanks, Msgr. Vaghi, for calling us back to the roots of our Catholic religion, the seven sacraments. You indeed proclaim the mysteries of our faith.&#34; --<b>Most Reverend Timothy M. Dolan</b>, Archbishop of New York<br><br>&#34;Msgr. Vaghi speaks out of his long pastoral experience in a way that helps the reader recognize that what is taking place in the sacramental sign is real. A delight to read and a joy to recommend.&#34; --<b>Most Reverend Donald W. Wuerl</b>, Archbishop of Washington<br><br>&#34;This book shows that the sacraments are truly a celebration, a celebration of Christ's love as real as the love he showed when he walked the earth. Prepare yourself for a breath of fresh spiritual air--the heart and beauty of encountering Christ in the sacraments comes alive in these pages.&#34; --<b>Carl A. Anderson</b>, Supreme Knight, Knights of Columbus

  Jesus Gave
  His Church Seven Sacraments
  THE saving work of Jesus Christ is continued
  in the Church. Through the gift of the Holy
  Spirit, the Church enjoys the presence of Jesus
  and
  carries on His mission of saving our
  souls.
  The Church does this by means of the sacraments
  which Jesus gave to His Church.
  
  JESUS gave us the Seven Sacraments to make
  us holy and to give worship
  to God. The
  sacraments
  are:
  Pa«e
  1. Baptism,
  6
  2.
  Confirmation,
  ....
  8
  3.
  Penance,

  ...

  5. Anointing of the Sick, 25
  6. Holy Orders,

  The Sacraments give us God's grace.
