Day 122. How should you receive the sacraments? (2025)

Today is day 122 and we are studying The Sacraments.

122. How should you receive the sacraments?

I should receive the sacraments by faith in Christ, with repentance and thanksgiving. Faith in Christ is necessary to receive the grace of the sacraments, and obedience to Christ is necessary for the benefits of the sacraments to bear fruit in my life. (Mark 16:16; John 6:52–58; Acts 2:38–47; 1 Corinthians 11:27–32; 1662 Catechism; Articles of Religion, 28)

We will conclude today with The Collect for Saint Thomas found on page 623 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
