Reconciliation (Confession)

B. Sacrament of Healing:

(iv) RECONCILIATION (Confession):

The sacrament of Reconciliation or Penance is one of two sacraments of healing. It is the sacrament that brings spiritual healing for Catholics who have distanced themselves from God by committing sins.

There are four elements involved:

The penitential contrition for sin
Confession to a Priest
Absolution by the Priest and
Satisfaction

Through penance, the faithful receive pardon through God's mercy for the sins they have committed. At the same time, they are reconciled with the Church community. The confession, or disclosure, of sins frees us and facilitates our reconciliation with others.

Parish children are usually introduced to the sacrament around the age of seven when preparing for their first holy communion in the parish.

INDIVIDUAL RECONCILIATION (Confession) is available:
Every 1st , 2nd and 3rd Saturdays immediately after first morning Mass .

Reconciliation is also available by appointment; please visit the parish officer for more information.
