  2. What is a Sacrament? The seven sacraments are a very important part of our Catholic faith. We believe Jesus himself gave us each of the sacraments and each one flows from his life and ministry. Through each sacrament we are given the grace of God and drawn closer to him. Each sacrament is a visible sign of God’s unconditional love for us. A sacrament can be a visible sign where God comes to us, enters into our life and brings us closer to him through his grace.
