Reconciliation Times
Reconciliation (or penance, confession) is the sacrament in which sins committed after baptism are confessed after an examination of conscience and forgiven by a priest in the name of Christ. Lent is a season of reflection on and repentance for sin. Reconciliation, like Lent, is tied into our fidelity to the meaning of baptism in Christ — dying and rising with him.
Regular Confession Times
Regular Weekly Confessions take place in the Chapel.

Diocesan Reconciliation Night
This evening has been designated for confession at every church in our diocese. While this evening is open to everyone to receive the sacrament of reconciliation, the Church invites and encourages in a special way everyone who has been away from the church or has not received the sacrament of confession for a while to attend. If you are a regular penitent, we encourage you to invite at least one other person who has been away from the church for a while to attend with you on this evening.
