The Sacrament of Reconciliation, also known as the Sacrament of Confession, is a meaningful experience of God’s divine mercy and forgiveness. It invites the faithful to examine their conscience, confess their sins to a priest, and receive absolution through the power of Christ acting in the sacrament.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation helps to heal the soul, rebuild the connection with God, and encourages personal growth. It’s a moment of humility and trust in God’s love and mercy.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) is available regularly on Saturdays from 3:30pm to 4:30pm or by appointment.
