The Sacraments
There are many signs of God's love in our everyday lives. The Church is the sacrament of Jesus.
The most effective signs of God's presence with us are the seven sacraments. They are unlike any
other signs in our lives because when we celebrate the sacraments, Jesus shares with us God's own
life of grace. As we celebrate the sacraments at St. Brigid, we are invited to carry out the mission
of Jesus in the world. We then respond to the sacraments by the way we live our lives.
