"The Sacrament of Reconciliation calls us back to God and embraces us with his infinite mercy & joy." - Pope Francis The Season of Lent is a time of renewal. We long to grow closer to Christ, as we look forward to the celebration of the Paschal Mystery. When we sin, we harm our relationship with God and his Church. That is why the sacrament of reconciliation is such a wonderful gift to experience during Lent. Through the sacrament, we experience God's mercy, our sins are forgiven, and we are healed. Here are some additional opportunities to receive the sacrament by Fr.
