Reconciliation
Do you find yourself being weighed down by the sins of your life?
Take the weight off your shoulders and be freed! Come to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and experience the saving power of God’s love and mercy. Confessing our sins to a priest restores our intimate relationship with God and allows our hearts to be opened to receive the grace, forgiveness, and unconditional love that God so freely offers to us through this Sacrament.
