“If we say, “We are without sin,” we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we acknowledge our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from every wrongdoing.” 1John 1:8-9

The Sacrament of Reconciliation (or Penance) is one of the Sacraments of Healing. This is called the sacrament of forgiveness, since by the priest’s sacramental absolution God grants the penitent “pardon and peace.” Catechism of Catholic Church #1424

Sacrament of Reconciliation

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is celebrated every Saturday at St. James Church from 4:00-4:45 pm. There are also special Reconciliation services held in the Christmas and Easter seasons - watch the Bulletin.

Preparation for First Reconciliation

This is a wonderful learning time for children and their families. We at All Saints Parish feel blessed to partner with families to guide them through the preparation process.
