The Sacrament of Reconciliation 

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is the sacrament of God's mercy, through which our sins are forgiven and our relationship with God and the Church is restored. By confessing our sins with sincere repentance and receiving absolution from the priest, we experience Christ's healing, peace, and grace to live more faithfully as His disciples. When we confess our sins, we are exercising the gift of our own free will – the choice to tell God that we have wronged Him and others and seek to have our relationship with them restored. Through Confession, God reaches back to us in a most real way, love and mercy in hand. We are encouraged to frequently receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) in order that we might be well disposed to receive the other sacraments in a state of grace.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is celebrated every Saturday from 3:30 to 4:30 P.M. in the Church, or by appointment by calling the Rectory.
