Reconciliation
|
"Your sins are forgiven, go in peace.”
In the Sacrament of Reconciliation Christ pours out His Divine Mercy to free His people from their sins. Reconciliation meets the human need to bring things into the light, and the Divine desire to show mercy and forgive. Many saints suggest taking part in this sacrament monthly, as it not only heals, but also strengthens the recipient. Certainly, as soon as possible after committing a mortal sin, so as to be opened more deeply again to God’s love and to begin the journey of the Christian life again. Far from being something to fear, Confession is a gift to be embraced so that God may heal us and help us know and live His love more fully. At Christ Our Hope Reconciliation is always available by appointment with Fr. Aaron, and is offered each week before the Saturday afternoon Mass and the 8:30AM Sunday morning Mass. For more information about Reconciliation and spiritual growth, we recommend visiting GoodConfession.com's confession page. Examinations of Conscience are also available at the entrance of each of the church buildings or by request through contact with the parish office. |
