Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation

The Sacrament of reconciliation is a Sacrament of healing and conversion. Those who approach the sacrament of Penance obtain pardon from God's mercy for the offense committed against Him, and are, at the same time, reconciled with the Church, which they have wounded, by their sins.


Opportunities to Celebrate the Sacrament

The Sacrament of Reconciliation can be celebrated each week (Monday through Saturday) through Individual Confession.

During the seasons of Advent and Lent, Communal Penance Services (with Individual Confession) is held the Sunday prior to Christmas and Palm Sunday.
