When someone speaks about the "four sacraments of forgiveness" they are referring to Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist, and Anointing of the Sick. Each of these sacraments have components of forgiveness within them.
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Sacraments are visible signs of the hidden realities. The saving work of Jesus Christ, his holy and sanctifying humanity is the sacrament of salvation, which is revealed and active in the Church's sacraments. ( CCC 774). ... Christ now acts through the sacraments he instituted to communicate his grace. The sacraments are perceptible signs (words and actions) accessible to our human nature. By the action of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit they make present efficaciously the grace that they signify. (CCC 1084) "Celebrated worthily in faith, the sacraments confer the grace that they signify. (Cf. Council of Trent (1547): Denzinger-Schonmetzer, Enchiridion Symbolorun, definitionum et declarationum de rebus fidei et morum (1965) - (CCC 1127). The four sacraments, as mentioned above, that give forgiveness are Baptism, Confession, Anointing of the Sick, and the Eucharist forgives venial sin. All of these work efficaciously as Christ himself is as work in them, they depend (except baptism) on the receptivity of the individual for the actual grace received.
