The Sacrament of Reconciliation restores one to God’s grace after they have sinned. Serious (mortal) sin must be forgiven before a Catholic may receive the Eucharist. Thus, most parishes offer confessions each weekend.

Confession Time: Saturday 2:00 – 2:30PM or by appointment

Everyday (venial) sins may be taken care of by a contrite heart and praying to God directly; they do not require confession. The penitential rite at the beginning of each Mass takes care of venial sins. First Reconciliation is offered to children in Grade 2 before they make their First Holy Communion.
