Reconciliation
"Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel." Throughout his life, Jesus was
sought out by men and women who, distressed and humbled, said, "Yes, I have sinned,
have mercy on me." Their faith drew them to believe in Jesus' power of forgiveness
- the living presence of the compassionate God. 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. The priest, serving
as God's representative, continues Jesus' ministry of forgiveness and reconciliation
by forgiving penitents their sins in this sacrament.
Your priest, in carrying out the commitment to be Christ's presence among us, provides
the avenue to the healing that Confession and Reconciliation bring.
Confessions are available at:
8:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, Thursday & Friday,
6:00 p.m. - 6:45 p.m. Wednesday
6:00 p.m. - 7:15 p.m. Saturday
You may also call the parish office at 306-764-4942,
