A Word From Our Pastor
As you know, our parish offers opportunities for Confession seven
days a week. As a result, there are about 60 confessions a week during Ordinary Time; many more during Lent and
Advent when we offer additional confession times.
Perhaps you have noticed that there are times, especially
before the 10:30 Mass on Sundays, when we have to cease
hearing confessions so that the priest can prepare for Mass.
Sometimes there are a number of penitents that are turned away at
this time.
Many of our people are fond of having what some might call
"devotional confessions," that is, although they have no serious sins
to confess, it is good to seek absolution for minor offenses of God's
ways. This in itself is very good; however, perhaps there is someone
in that confession line that has a more serious need for the sacrament.
So, I am asking a favor. If the confession line is significant and the
time before Mass growing closer, please avoid offering a "devotional
confession." Give another person a chance to
receive the sacrament. It may be a very important moment for him or
her. The Lord will be pleased at your sacrifice.
Thanks,
Fr. John
