The Sacraments

In R.E. we are learning about the Sacraments - Hākarameta. Sacraments are a time in which we encounter Christ in a special way. They make the invisible, visible. 

Sacraments are ways God is with us in our lives. God does not want to be distant from the people he creates and loves so much. Each time a Sacrament is celebrated, God is present among his people.

There are 7 Sacraments in the Catholic Church: Baptism, Reconciliation, Confirmation, Eucharist, Marriage, Holy Orders and Anointing of the Sick.

This week we have been talking about the Sacraments of Initiation. These Sacraments welcome you into church. We talked about the symbols and rituals of these Sacraments and then created our own Google Slide to show our understanding.

Here is a sneak preview of what you will find on our individual blogs...
