1. Baptism
Minister of baptism is first the bishop and second the priest.
Natural water that is poured or sprinkled on a person, or in which a person is immersed, is the matter or material element necessary for baptism.
The pronouncing of the words is the form of baptism, namely: "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."
This sacrament is the door of the Church of Christ and the entrance into a new life. We are reborn from the state of slaves of sin into the freedom of the Sons of God. Baptism incorporates us with Christ’s mystical body and makes us partakers of all the privileges flowing from the redemptive act of the Church’s Divine Founder.
2.Confirmation
The ordinary minister of Confirmation is a bishop, usually of the same diocese as the confirmand. In cases of emergency, special faculties can be extended to a priest.
Hand on the person and anointing him with chrism (bleesed oil).
"Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit."
1.Rooting us more deeply as adopted sons and daughters of God.
2.Uniting us more firmly to Christ.
3.Increasing the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit in us.
4.Bonding us more perfectly to the Church.
3.Eucharist
The bishop or priest celebrant reverently hands vessels containing the Body or the Blood of the Lord to the deacons or extraordinary ministers who will assist with the distribution of Holy Communion.
Bread and wine.
"This is my body...This is the cup of my blood..."
The doctrine of the Church regarding the effects or the fruits of Holy Communion centres around two ideas: (a) the union with Christ by love and (b) the spiritual repast of the soul. Both ideas are often verified in one and same effect of Holy Eucharist.
4.Reconciliation or Penance
Only a priest can administer the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
The verbal confession of sins.
"I absolve you from your sins in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."
