Reconciliation/Confession

“Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven”

Matthew 18:18


With these words to St. Peter, Jesus instituted the sacrament of Reconciliation. This sacrament has taken on a variety of forms over the centuries and our current practice most closely resembles the sacrament as it took place in the monasteries of Ireland.  The sacrament of Reconciliation/confession is an opportunity to participate in the Sacramental life of the Church and is an opportunity to encounter the presence of God in the grace of the sacrament itself. It is our sincerest hope that the sacrament of reconciliation fills you with a peace that only God can give.
