THE CELEBRATION OF THE SACREMENTS

The seven sacraments — Baptism, Confession, Holy Communion, Confirmation, Marriage, Holy Orders, and the Anointing of the Sick — are the life of the Catholic Church. Each sacrament is an outward sign of an inward grace. When we participate in them worthily, each provides us with graces, with the life of God in our soul. In worship we give to God that which we owe Him; in the sacraments He gives us the graces necessary to live a truly human life.
 
Please note that St. Paul of the Cross Church does not celebrate Mass, or other Sacraments, in any language other than English. The priests of this Vicariate have decided that if certain parishes offer certain ministries, other parishes will not duplicate it.
