Article 1 SACRAMENTALS
1671
Among
sacramentals blessings (of persons, meals, objects, and places) come first.
Every blessing praises God and prays for his gifts. In Christ, Christians are
blessed by God the Father “with every spiritual blessing.”175
This is why the Church imparts blessings by invoking the name of Jesus, usually
while making the holy sign of the cross of Christ.
