==Worship and the Sacraments==

Christians normally attend worship services at once a week, typically on Sundays (although some denominiations, like [[Seventh Day Adventists]] worship on Saturdays).  The [[Catholic]] and [[Eastern Orthodox]] denominations have seven sacraments: [[baptism]], [[eucharist]], [[confirmation]], [[confession]], [[anointing of the sick]], [[marriage]], and [[holy orders]].  Of these, Protestants have preserved only baptism and eucharist, which are the only two sacraments for which they find Scriptural support.
