SACRAMENTS

Christ instituted the sacraments of the new law. There are seven: Baptism, Confirmation (or Chrismation), the Eucharist, Penance, the Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders and Matrimony. The seven sacraments touch all the stages and all the important moments of Christian life: they give birth and increase, healing and mission to the Christian's life of faith. There is thus a certain resemblance between the stages of natural life and the stages of the spiritual life.  [Catechism of the Catholic Church 1210]

Perfect prayer is achieved not with many words but with loving desire. . . .
Everything you do can be a prayer.
St. Catherine of Siena

Everything that one turns in the direction of God is prayer.
St. Ignatius of Loyola

For me, prayer is a surge of the heart;
it is a simple look turned toward heaven,
it is a cry of recognition and of love,
embracing both trial and joy.
St. Therese of Lisieux
