What are Sacraments?<\/h2>\n

The sacraments are efficacious signs of grace, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church, by which divine life is dispensed to us. (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1131)<\/p>\n

In other words, Sacraments are given to us by God so that we can receive grace, or his very life in us. Jesus established the Sacraments and entrusted them to the Church so that we would have the consolation of his presence ever with us to sustain us and give us life. Or, even better as St. Anthony poetically wrote it above, the Sacraments are the water or nourishment or critical care by which he tends to us and our needs, like that of a gardener to his plants.<\/p>\n

The Sacraments give us life.<\/p>\n
