The Baptist Churches including both the American & Southern Baptist churches do not recognize or celebrate the sacraments. The Mormons and all the Pentecostal and fundamentalist churches, like the Assembly of God also do not recognize any sacraments.
When 7 sacraments were made?
I assume you are referring to the seven sacraments of Catholicism and the Orthodox Churches. The Catholics and Orthodox (which were a single Church until the twelth century, more or less), believe that the seven Sacraments were instituted by Jesus Christ Himself, in an early form, when He was on earth. The seven sacraments are Baptism, Confession or Reconciliation, Eucharist (Communion), Confirmation, Holy Orders, Matrimony (Marriage), and Viaticum (Anointing of the Sick).
How do you describe the Sacraments to another person of Methodist faith?
The Methodists, as do most "Protestant" denominations recognize only two Sacraments: Baptism and Holy Communion. Both the Western and Eastern Catholic Churches and the Orthodox Churches recognize seven Sacraments. Baptism, Holy Communion and Confirmation, are the Sacraments of Initiation. The remaining four are Reconciliation [Penance, Confession. and different names for the same Sacrament]; Matrimony; Holy Orders [Ordination to the Priesthood]; and Anointing of the Sick [in the past this was known as 'extreme unction,and understood to be the "Last Rites" received at the point of death... but that is a misunderstanding of the Sacrament]. The 5 additional Sacraments recognized by the Catholic and Orthodox Churches are understood to have been instituted by Christ (as can be found in the Bible). ie: Matrimony - the wedding at Cana. An explanation describing how the Sacraments are Scripturally founded would be the best way to approach the situation.
