Excerpt from A Manual of Moral Theology for English-Speaking Countries, Vol. 2 There are certain rites and ceremonies in use in the Church which are called sacramentals. Of these we may mention the consecration Of abbots, the first tonsure of clerics, the sacring Of kings, the blessing Of chalices and bells, holy water, agnus Dei, scapulars, and many more. They are called sacramentals because they are sacred rites which, if properly used according to the mind of the Church, confer spiritual graces on the soul Of him who uses them. They do this through the approbation and blessing Of the Church, the Spouse Of Christ, whose prayers and desires Christ always listens to, and through the good dis positions Of those who use them. They thus differ from sacraments, as also in the grace which they produce.' They confer actual graces, special helps to do good and avoid evil, given by God in answer to the prayers Of the Church and the pious desires of those who use them properly.
