sacraments

The Lutheran Church celebrates two sacraments – Holy Baptism and Holy Communion. In each sacrament, we receive God’s gifts in a concrete form. We hear God’s promise, we acknowledge Jesus’ words of command, we feel, we taste, we are touched by God’s grace and mercy. 


Holy Baptism is the one-time sacrament that brings us into the Church and connects our lives with the Cross of Christ and the promise of everlasting life. 


Holy Communion is the sacrament that we receive again and again, assuring us of the new life and forgiveness given by God that nurtures and sustains us. At Centennial, we celebrate Holy Communion as part of our worship every Sunday.
