You are welcome at St. Gregroy the Great Church for Confession:
SATURDAY: 3:00 p.m. to 3:45 p.m
In this sacrament God’s love and mercy visits us through:
repentance – to humbly and honestly recognize our sins and failures.
contrition – to be really sorry for hurting God and others because of our sins.
penance – to concretely show in our thoughts, words and actions our ‘yes’ to God and our ‘no’ to evil.
absolution – In this sacrament, we receive absolution. Our sins are forgiven by God through Jesus in the ministry of the priest, and therefore, we are once more reconciled with God and one another, the Church.
Act of Contrition
My God,
I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong
and failing to do good,
I have sinned against you
whom I should love above all things.
I firmly intend, with your help,
to do penance,
to sin no more,
and to avoid whatever leads me to sin.
Our Savior Jesus Christ
suffered and died for us.
In his name, my God, have mercy.
