Sacraments

Signs of God's Grace in Our Lives

Delve into the significance of sacraments and actively connect with God. Join us on this enriching journey of faith, discovering the depth of communal worship and strengthening your Catholic identity.


Baptism

By Baptism we become members of the Church, the Body of Christ.

If you are interested receiving the sacrament of Baptism, please call the church office at 505-898-1779 to complete the paperwork & schedule an appt with Deacon Ela.

Confession

Not only does the Sacrament of Penance free us from our sins but it also challenges us to have the same kind of compassion and forgiveness for those who sin against us.

Join us for weekly confessions on Saturdays at 3 pm.

Holy Eucharist

The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life. The term “Eucharist” originates from the Greek word eucharistia, meaning thanksgiving.

Confirmation

In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is "sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit" and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ.

Marriage

By their marriage, the couple witnesses Christ's spousal love for the Church.

If you are wishing to receive the sacrament of marriage, please call the church office at 505-898-1779 to set up a meeting with Father McGowan.

Anointing of the Sick

Jesus came to heal the whole person, body and soul.

If you or someone you know are wishing to receive this sacrament, please the church office at

505-898-1779.

Holy Orders

"Becoming a priest or a man or woman religious is not primarily our own decision.... Rather it is the response to a call and to a call of love." - Pope Francis, Address to Seminarians and Novices, July 6, 2013
