Our Catechism teaches us that the Seven Sacraments are “outwards signs of grace, instituted by Christ, to give grace.”

It is this grace which enables us to grow in our own humanity… to be all that God intended us to be. Please click on the related topics to learn more about the Sacramental life here at St. James.

“O Sacrament of love; O sign of unity; O bond of Charity. He who would have life finds here indeed a life to live in and life to live by.” – St. Augustine

Think of the Sacraments as fuel for your soul. “To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.” (Mother Theresa)
