Act of Contrition

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins, because of Your just punishments, but most of all because they offend You, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin. Amen.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation (confession) will be held once a month at each worship site. Confessions will be held on:
Saturdays from 11:00AM to 11:30AM at each worship site by the following schedule:
St. Ann - 1st Saturday of each Month
St. Hugh - 2nd Saturday of each Month
St. Ignatius - 3rd Saturday of each Month
St. Marcellus - 4th Saturday of each Month
There will be no confessions on the occasional 5th Saturday of the Month.

Given that sin destroys our relationship with God and undermines our relationship with other human beings, reconciliation designates that precise effect of Christ's redemption of the human race that restores our relationship with God and our human fellowship.

Christ breaks down the barriers that sin raises between us and God, and within the human community.

Our conversion from sin and reception of divine mercy are continually renewed by confession. Serious sin separates us from the body of the church, and sacramental penance reconciles us with God and the community of his people.

This sacrament is also referred to as the sacrament of penance or confession.
