UNDERSTANDING THE SACRAMENTS

Sacraments are at the heart of our lives as Catholics, the way we celebrate together our continuing conversion and encounter with God. Sacramental preparation is essential if we are to experience the fullness of our life in community and in Christ. Ever conscious of the complex history of the church and its dynamic relationship to ritual, Father Lawrence Mick gives us these booklets—based on individual chapters of his popular Understanding the Sacraments Today—as a companion to the ongoing and repeated practices that nourish us.

The complete Understanding the Sacraments collection is now available. This collection of seven booklets includes Baptism, Confirmation, Marriage, Holy Orders, Anointing, Eucharist and Penance. Each booklet can be purchased individually or as a set.
