What sacraments does the UCC celebrate?
The UCC celebrates two sacraments: Baptism and Holy Communion. The sacrament of Baptism celebrates new life in Jesus Christ. It is the moment when one comes or is brought forward and, with the help and support of the faith community, affirms a covenant with God through Jesus Christ and receives the gift of the Holy Spirit. Through the sacrament of Holy Communion we renew our covenant with God. The bread and the cup symbolize God’s inward and invisible grace at work in us. During communion we remember Jesus’ life, teachings, death, resurrection, and the promise of eternal life.
