Catholic Sacramentals

Fr. Kevin Ratterman in the Holy Lands 1998 - The Catholic Church of St. Francis Xavier, Enid, Oklahoma

A Sacramental in the Roman Catholic Church is an aid to devotion that is not a sacrament. Sacramentals are commonly divided into six classes: prayer, anointing, eating, confession, giving, and blessings. According to church teaching, sacramentals are not founded by God but by the church, and therefore do not convey grace. Examples are holy water, many blessings, and the rosary.
