The Dominical Sacraments
Baptism
Baptism is the sacrament of Christian initiation. It signifies a person's death to sin and new birth to righteousness, adoption into God's family and the incorporation into the Body of Christ (the Church). It is administered with water in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Holy Communion
Holy Communion (Holy Eucharist or the Lord's Supper) is the sacrament commanded by Christ for the continual remembrance of his life, death, and resurrection, until his coming again. The outward sign is bread and wine, and the inward grace is the Body and Blood of Christ, which are spiritually received by the faithful for nourishment and union with him.
