Can you receive sacraments more than once?

Answer 1

Baptism, marriage, extreme unction and the holy orders.

Answer: NO! Those sacraments listed above are one- shots in the Catholic church, with the exception of extreme unction. (If you happen to survive, you can receive extreme unction again at a later date.) Communion and Reconciliation can be repeated regularly. (The seventh sacrament on the list is First Communion, also something you can only do once.)

Answer 2

The Sacraments that can be received only once are Baptism, Holy Orders, and Confirmation. The other four, Holy Eucharist, Extreme Unction (also known as Anointing of the Sick), Penance (also known as Confession), and Matrimony can be received more than once.

Matrimony can be received more than once, ONLY if one receives a Valid Annulment from the Church.

Answer 3

Sacraments are received as needed; for instance the sacrament of the sick is given to somebody who is very ill or close to death. It may be that they recover and later relapse.

Catholic AnswerCertain Sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Orders can only be received once since they cause an ontological perduring change. The other sacraments give an increase of grace each time they are received and, particularly in the case of Penance and Holy Communion, should be received frequently. Ideally, Holy Communion should be received daily, and Penance at least weekly, no less than monthly. The Sacrament of Anointing should only be received as needed, and the sacrament of matrimony should only be received once as long as a spouse is living.

Answer 4

Two sacaments that can be repeated are Communion and Reconciliation. Communion is recieving the Eucharist, and Reconciliation is begging pardon for sins.
