Synopsis
In The Sacraments We Celebrate: A Catholic Guide to the Seven Mysteries of Faith, the second book in the Pillars of Faith series, Msgr. Peter J. Vaghi introduces the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church.
Drawing from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the U.S. Catholic Catechism for Adults, and the writings of Benedict XVI and John Paul II, Msgr. Vaghi's easy-to-use resource considers each of the sacraments from a personal, communal, and social perspective. The chapters explore the sacraments as a whole and examine the scriptural foundation, the history, and the symbolism of each.
At a time when Mass attendance, Confession, and the celebration of Catholic weddings are all declining, the clarity and accessibility of Msgr. Peter Vaghi's writing on the meaning of these celebrations, complemented by questions for reflection and prayer, makes The Sacraments We Celebrate a vital resource for any Catholic seeking to understand these central actions of the faith.

Review
"Get ready for this work not only to form your mind, but also to touch your heart and soul. I'm afraid we Catholics take our sacramental life for granted. If you want a booster shot for a faith in the sacraments that has become a bit listless, keep on reading. Thanks, Msgr. Vaghi, for calling us back to the roots of our Catholic religion, the seven sacraments. You indeed proclaim the mysteries of our faith." --Most Reverend Timothy M. Dolan, Archbishop of New York
"Msgr. Vaghi speaks out of his long pastoral experience in a way that helps the reader recognize that what is taking place in the sacramental sign is real. A delight to read and a joy to recommend." --Most Reverend Donald W. Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington
"This book shows that the sacraments are truly a celebration, a celebration of Christ's love as real as the love he showed when he walked the earth. Prepare yourself for a breath of fresh spiritual air--the heart and beauty of encountering Christ in the sacraments comes alive in these pages." --Carl A. Anderson, Supreme Knight, Knights of Columbus
