RECONCILIATION/CONFESSIONS

The Sacrament of Reconciliation offers the opportunity for a Catholic person to receive forgiveness for sins they have committed. 

God's forgiveness has been offered through Jesus Christ and extended to His Church by priests asking the forgiveness of God upon a Catholic person. Jesus Christ began this Sacrament of Healing for all sinful members of his Church.

RECONCILIATION (Confession) SCHEDULE

Reconciliation is held on Saturday afternoons from 4:00 - 4:45, Monday nights from 7:15-7:45 pm, and  Eves of First Friday and holy days from 4:00-4:45 pm.  At other times, please feel free, and most welcome, to make an appointment with one of the priests.

FIRST RECONCILIATION/PENANCE
