Sacraments

The power to change and to go on changing is a distinctive quality of the human being. Because each single person has a power of becoming within them which has no visible limit, if they are willing to trust it, the Christian sacraments have a place in human

life.

They are deeds which, on the one hand, complete the natural events of life by the grace of the spirit, and on the other foster the inner growth of the soul towards its fulfillment.

The seven sacraments which are celebrated in the ICA Centre follow the course of a human lifetime, joining to that which comes about by nature that which is done through the working of Christ. These seven sacraments are:

•Baptism

•Confirmation, and Realisation

•Cosmic Mass

•Grace

•Marriage, and the Covenant of Love

•Ordination

•Last Rites, and the Funeral and Cosmic Soul Mass

The Centre, The Independent Church of Australia places no dogmatic restrictions on who may partake of the sacraments.
