Confession

“If we undertake the examination of conscience with greater faithfulness, perhaps we will realize that what we sometimes consider a stumbling block is rather a rock we can step on. Knowledge of our sin helps us to rise.”

- Saint Teresa of Calcutta

The Sacrament of Confession, also known as Reconciliation or Penance, is a profound encounter with God’s endless mercy and forgiveness. In Confession, we approach God with honesty and courage, entrusting ourselves to His loving mercy and seeking to overcome the burden of sin. Through this sacrament, God grants us pardon and peace, reconciling us with Himself and with the Church. Confession not only frees us spiritually but renews our connection to the community of faith, opening a path to a hopeful, transformed future.

Before celebrating the Sacrament of Penance, one should prepare oneself with an examination of conscience, which involves reflecting prayerfully on one's thoughts, words, and deeds in order to identify any sins. Use the links below as a guide to help you prepare.
