Reconciliation involves a change in the relationship between God and man or man and man. By receiving this Sacrament we can obtain forgiveness of sins and reconcile with God and the Church changing from a state of enmity and fragmentation to one of harmony and fellowship.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is also known as -

Excerpt from Catechism of the Catholic Church

“The sacrament of conversion because it makes sacramentally present Jesus' call to conversion, the first step in returning to the Father from whom one has strayed by sin.

The sacrament of Penance, since it consecrates the Christian sinner's personal and ecclesial steps of conversion, penance, and satisfaction.

The sacrament of confession, since the disclosure or confession of sins to a priest is an essential element of this sacrament. In a profound sense it is also a "confession" - acknowledgment and praise - of the holiness of God and of his mercy toward sinful man.

The sacrament of forgiveness, since by the priest's sacramental absolution God grants the penitent "pardon and peace."

Confessions are held every Saturday: 10:30am - 11:15am at Our Lady of the Rosary. They are also available on request, please call before coming to the presbytery.
