La Liturgica/ The Liturgy

En la liturgia de la Iglesia se revela y comunica plenamente la bendición divina. el Padre es reconocido y adorado como la fuente y el fin de todas las bendiciones de la creación y la salvación. En su Verbo que se encarnó, murió y resucitó por nosotros, nos llena de sus bendiciones. A través de su Palabra, derrama en nuestros corazones el Don que contiene todos los dones, el Espíritu Santo.

Unción de los enfermos,
Órdenes Sagradas, y

The whole liturgical life of the Church revolves around the Eucharistic sacrifice and the sacraments. There are seven sacraments in the Church:
Baptism
Confirmation or Chrismation,
Eucharist,
Penance,
Anointing of the Sick,
Holy Orders, and
Matrimony.

Los sacramentos son "poderes que salen" del Cuerpo de Cristo, que es siempre vivo y dador de vida. Son acciones del Espíritu Santo que actúan en su Cuerpo, la Iglesia. Son "las obras maestras de Dios" en el nuevo y sempiterno pacto.


Sacraments are "powers that comes forth" from the Body of Christ, which is ever-living and life-giving. They are actions of the Holy Spirit at work in his Body, the Church. They are "the masterworks of God" in the new and everlasting covenant.

Reconciliation
Those who approach the sacrament of Penance obtain pardon from God's mercy for the offense committed against him, and are, at the same time, reconciled with the Church which they have wounded by their sins and which by charity, by example, and by prayer labors for their conversion.
Catechism of the Catholic Church 1422




Take me to the opening paragraph.

Holy Eucharist
The holy Eucharist completes Christian initiation. Those who have been raised to the dignity of the royal priesthood by Baptism and configured more deeply to Christ by Confirmation participate with the whole community in the Lord's own sacrifice by means of the Eucharist.

At the Last Supper, on the night he was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This he did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until he should come again, and so to entrust to his beloved Spouse, the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a Paschal banquet 'in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us.

Matrimony
The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament. Catechism of the Catholic Church 1601



Take me to the opening paragraph.

Holy Orders
Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry. It includes three degrees: episcopate, presbyterate, and diaconate.

Anoiting of the Sick
By the sacred anointing of the sick and the prayer of the priests the whole Church commends those who are ill to the suffering and glorified Lord, that he may raise them up and save them and indeed she exhorts them to contribute to the good of the People of God by freely uniting themselves to the Passion and death of Christ.
