When we celebrate the sacraments, we receive absolution and the benefits of Christ’s gift. After Mass, we receive the communion wafer, the body of Christ, symbolically on our tongues and in our hearts. During all six sacraments, we consume a material sign of what the gift is meant to signify. In the sacraments of Eucharist and Confession, the wafer or host, the wine, or both is offered on the altar. In Baptism, water is used to symbolize baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.The Eucharist, or the Sacrament of the Altar, is also referred to as the Lord’s Supper or the Communion of the Body and Blood of Christ. While the Lord’s Supper is an essential part of the Mass, it is more than a passover meal. Each member of the congregation receives the bread and the wine each week during the Liturgy of the Word and the Eucharist. Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Mary Salome represent the Three Marys as they prepare for Holy Thursday Mass. The paschal lamb, symbolizing Jesus’ sacrifice, is being eaten during the meal.The Sacrament of Penance, or Confession, has great significance for all Catholics. It’s not simply a way of saying you are sorry to God and confess your sins. It is a good and necessary means of healing from sin.In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, ordained men and women receive sacred orders. As a priest or deacon, you promise to continue in a lifelong ministry of service to the Church. As a bishop or priestess, you promise to serve your parish. The cloth is important because it makes us remember that we are clothed with Christ.With the feast of St John the Baptist's day, we are given the opportunity to focus on this great prophet and forerunner of Jesus. He is like an olive leaf in the desert, a light in the darkness, a young shepherd in the midst of the flock of God.
