Other than the Eucharist, the other great Sacrament of Healing in our Catholic Tradition is the Sacrament of Reconciliation. As a Church, we believe that Jesus instituted the Sacrament so that we could know of his love and forgiveness, through the presence of a minister of the Church. Of course it is God alone who forgives sin, but he chose to come to us through the priest. The beauty of the Sacrament is that we know for sure we are forgiven after the words of Absolution are spoken by the priest. read more
