Preparing for Confession

Although not a difficult process, the Sacrament of Reconciliation does require some preparation. Begin by prayerfully placing yourself in the loving presence of God the Father. Reflect on your life since your last confession and search for thoughts, words, and actions that did not conform to God’s command to love Him and one another. This examination of conscience will better help you to repent and resolve to sin no more.
