The Sacraments

All the sacraments have a deifying purpose: Baptism introduces the Divine Life into us. Confession restores it when it’s lost through sin. Confirmation strengthens it. Matrimony and Holy Orders give it vocational direction. Anointing of the Sick prepares us for the transition to our heavenly homeland. And the Eucharist is meant to Christify us.
— Bishop Robert Barron

Baptism

“Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: 'Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.’” -CCC 1213

The Eucharist

“When you approach the tabernacle remember that God has been waiting for you for twenty centuries.” -St. Josemaria Escriva

Confirmation

“Baptism, the Eucharist, and the sacrament of Confirmation together constitute the "sacraments of Christian initiation," whose unity must be safeguarded. It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of the sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace. For "by the sacrament of Confirmation, [the baptized] are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed." -CCC 1285

Reconciliation

So many people see the confessional as a place of defeat, but confession is a place of victory every single time.
— Father Mike Schmitz

The sacrament of reconciliation is offered at Cabrini Tuesday evenings from 6:30pm-7:30pm and Saturday mornings from 8:00-9:30am, or by appointment.

 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.” -CCC 1153

 
 

 

Matrimony

The sacrament of Matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. It gives spouses the grace to love each other with the love with which Christ has loved his Church; the grace of the sacrament thus perfects the human love of the spouses, strengthens their indissoluble unity, and sanctifies them on the way to eternal life
— CCC 11161

 Anointing of the Sick

God gave us the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick that when we experience grave suffering in our lives or when we approach death, we can receive grace to persevere in the faith and unite our suffering to Jesus’s in his own passion and death. God is the ultimate physician and heals us in receiving the Sacrament to prepare us in our approach toward his Kingdom and eternal life.
