Penance (Reconciliation)

The sacrament of reconciliation (also know as the sacrament of penance, of conversion, of forgiveness, or simply as “confession”) is one of the two sacraments of healing, for it heals the Christian of the greatest sickness, sin, which corrupts our true humanity and separates us from God and from each other. The other sacrament of healing is Anointing of the Sick.

Reconciliation is offered every Saturday at 3:30-4:15 pm (SH), Sunday at 4:00-4:45 pm (SH), Tuesday at 5:45 pm (SM), Thursday at 4:15-5:15 pm (SM). Communal penance services may be held during the seasons of Advent and Lent.
Second graders prepare for Reconciliation before First Eucharist (for more information on First Communion go to Grow In Faith).
