Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation
The Sacrament of Penance not only frees us from our sins but also challenges us to have the same kind of compassion and forgiveness for those who sin against us. We are liberated to be forgivers. We obtain new insight into the words of the Prayer of St. Francis: "It is in pardoning that we are pardoned."
The Sacrament of Penance & Confession is on Saturdays from 3:30 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. in the Church. Parish Reconciliation services are held during Advent and Lent.
First Reconciliation is offered when your child is enrolled in religious education classes for sacramental preparation to receive the First Holy Eucharist.
