Holy Water
Holy Water is water that has been blessed by a priest in the name of the Church.
Why does the Church encourage the use of Holy Water?
- It reminds us of our Baptism.
- It reminds us, as we bless ourselves with it, of the presence within us of the Blessed Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- Because, through the Church’s blessing, the water, weak though it is in itself becomes a powerful defence against the spiritual powers of evil which surround us.
- It is a visible sign, in addition to the sacraments of God’s Help. It is called a Sacramental.
