Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How many sacraments of the Catholic Church are there?

Answer: 7

They are Baptism, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Confirmation, Annointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Marriage.

2. May an unbaptized person administer the sacrament of baptism?

Answer: Yes

Under extraordinary circumstances anyone may administer the sacrament of baptism, as long as he or she has the right intentions!

3. Is it possible for a man to receive every sacrament?

Answer: Yes

Yes, it is possible, but only a widower may receive the fullness of the sacrament of Holy Orders and marriage as married men may not become bishops.

Answer: ex opere operato

Ex opere operantis is an idea that Martin Luther came up with saying that the grace of the sacrament is affected by both the grace of the minister and the recipient. The other two are just products of my imagination.

5. What are the three sacraments of Initiation?

Answer: Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation

Reconciliation and Anointing of the Sick are the sacraments of Healing. Holy Orders and Marriage are the sacraments of Vocation.

6. Eucharist administered to the dying is known by what other name?

Answer: viaticum

Viaticum translated from the latin means "provision for a journey".

7. How many sacraments may a priest administer according to the eastern tradition?

Answer: 6

A priest may administer any sacrament other than Holy Orders according to the eastern tradition. According to the western tradition the answer would be five as in the western tradition the husband and wife are the administers of the sacrament of Marriage. Though normally in the western tradition a bishop administers confirmation, a priest may do so under extraordinary circumstances.

8. How many sacraments does the Catholic Church typically recognize as valid if performed by another denomination other than the Eastern Orthodox or Catholic Church?

Answer: 2

The Catholic Church accepts both Baptism and Marriage as valid if performed by other denominations. Marriage is preferably performed by a Catholic priest, but, according to the Catechism, the sacrament of matrimony is a gift the two spouses give each other.

9. May a non-baptized person be validly married by the Catholic Church?

Answer: Yes

Yes, but only if the partner is Catholic and dispensation is obtained from a competent authority.

10. How many sacraments leave an indelible mark on one's soul according to the Catholic Church?

Answer: 3

The three are Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Orders.
