RESOURCES FOR CONFESSION
The Sacrament of Reconciliation, also known as Confession, is a beautiful gift left to us by Jesus through His priests. It is in this Sacrament that many have found peace, forgiveness and great joy. While it is the duty of a Catholic to receive this Sacrament at least once a year and then worthily receive Communion as stated in the precepts of the Church and in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2042) many have found that making this Sacrament a regular part of their life has been a helpful and beautiful practice. Please take a look at the resources we have provided and come receive this healing Sacrament.

Join in the Prayer of the Church!
Have you prayed the Liturgy of the Hours before? This prayer, also called the Divine Office, is prayed not only by clergy and those in consecrated life, but has now began to be prayed by many lay people. This ancient prayer allows for the whole day to be covered with prayer, as it is prayed at different times and all over the world. It focuses on Scripture (particularly the psalms) and includes other spiritual writings. You can pray all or some of the hours. IBreviary is a wonderful site, which will lead you through the Liturgy of the Hours and is also an app that is available for download on all phone and tablet platforms (and in different languages), making it easy to pray every day. Join the Church in this beautiful prayer.
