RECONCILIATION
In Reconciliation, we encounter Jesus ready to absolve and restore us to new life.
His forgiveness of sins and restoration of grace are made visible through outward signs:
The extension of hands and the words of absolution spoken by the priest.

To make a good Confession, we prayerfully consider their actions and confess our sins with contrition.
The priest imposes a penance and absolves the confessant in the name and by the power of Christ.
Frequent Confession is encouraged for everyone. The Sacrament is available 12:00 - 12:15pm Tuesdays to Fridays before Weekday Mass.
