The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a healing remedy for our sinfuIness. Confession, one part of the Sacrament, calls us to discover the struggles that cause sinful acts and present them to God in the presence of the priest. All adult Catholics should consider approaching this sacrament at least twice a year, especially during Advent and Lent. Although serious matters should be brought before the priest, our lesser sins are healed through the celebration of Mass or with sincere contrition and any good work.
