The Sacraments in the liturgical tradition of the Armenian Churches

Main Article Content

José Manuel Fernández Rodríguez

Abstract

The Armenian Churches offer a particular list of Sacraments within their wide and very old liturgical tradition. Among all the Sacraments, the one of greater significance is the Divine Eucharist, to which the Armenians allot a relevant chapter. The Armenians share the Latin sevenfold list due to the influence received from the Catholic Church, but they do not develop nor practice all the Sacraments in the  same manner, because the use of some Sacraments has practically disappeared of their sacramental liturgical life and from other sacramental rites; instead, they offer numerous similarities with the Sacraments practiced by the Roman Catholic Church.
