Celebrate With Us

The whole liturgical life of the praying community of St. Viator revolves around the Eucharistic sacrifice and the sacraments. It is our privilege and joy to celebrate them with you.

Sacramental Introduction

In the Catechism of the Catholic Church we read at the beginning of Article 2, number 1113, The whole liturgical life of the Church revolves around the Eucharistic sacrifice and the sacraments.  There are seven sacraments in the Church: Baptism, Confirmation or Chrismation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders and Matrimony. Later we read in #1131, The sacraments are efficacious signs of grace, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church, by which divine life is dispensed to us.  The visible rites by which the sacraments are celebrated signify and make present the graces proper to each sacrament.  They bear fruit in those who receive them with the required dispositions

The Seven Sacraments

The seven sacraments, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church for our salvation are grouped into three categories:
The Sacraments of Initiation
  • Baptism
  • Confirmation
  • Eucharist
The Sacraments of Healing
  • Reconciliation
  • Anointing of the Sick
The Sacraments at the Service of the Communion
  • Holy Orders
  • Marriage
In this section of the website, you can read about each of the sacraments and how you can access them for yourself, your children or others in your life. If you have any questions, please call us at (773) 286-4040.
