Is anyone among you sick? He should summon the priests of the church, and they should pray over him and anoint [him] with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will save the sick person and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven. ( James 5:14-15)

0Be Reconciled with God.
This sacrament has several names, Sacrament of Penance, Confession, Reconciliation.
First Penance is celebrated for those baptized as infants in their preparation before receiving First Eucharist or First Holy Communion in Faith Formation Religious Education.
For those baptized later or as adults this sacrament is to be celebrated to receive God's mercy for sin after baptism. It is very important for those who are aware of serious sin to be reconciled again with God and is also helpful for graces to fight against minor sin. It is Christ who forgives in this sacrament of mercy.
Confessions are being heard in the Reconcilation Room in the back corner of the Church from on Saturdays from 4 to 4:30 PM with options to go face to face or behind the screen.
