Unit 1
The Sacramental Economy
Jesus established His Church here on Earth to continue His mission of the salvation of all souls. The Church is a visible sign of the invisible Kingdom of God, inaugurated by Christ during His earthly life. The Church uses visible signs and symbols to make known the invisible truths of our salvation. Jesus gave us the Seven Sacraments as visible, material means of receiving the invisible grace of God. How beautiful it is that God’s grand design for His creation and for our salvation is made known to us still today through the work of Christ’s Church.
