Penance / Reconciliation / Confession
The sacrament of reconciliation and forgiveness of sins.
For Children
Children receive instruction on examination of conscience, contrition, and confession before receiving First Reconciliation.
For Adults
Adults are guided by catechesis and pastoral instruction to approach the sacrament with sincere repentance and trust in God's mercy.
In the Sacrament of Penance (Reconciliation/Confession), we receive God's mercy and are restored to full friendship with Him and the Church.
