Sacraments
What is a Sacrament?
The word Sacrament comes from the Latin word sacramentum, which means “a sign of the sacred.” The seven sacraments are ceremonies that point to what is sacred and significant for us as Christians. They are special occasions for experiencing God’s saving presence. To learn more, please read below or feel free to speak with our priests on Sunday. If you learn more about the sacraments, you can celebrate them more fully. Please call the rectory at (718) 647-1321 or use our online email form for more information or to schedule an appointment. Thank you for your interest.
Peace and blessings!
