Summary/Abstract: The article presents Stefan Oster’s theological reflection on the sacraments. It starts with a philosophical concept of the person as relatio subsistens and the personal experience, where the realization of a person-being happens by “being at the other one”. The next step is a theological deepening based on the category of representation and the idea of Mary as the personal figure of the Church, who is a space of salvation filled with the presence of God. The third part presents the sacraments as personal gifts. The crown is the vision of the Eucharist as a place of the personal presence of Christ.
