We Connect

The story of how our first parents sinned

teaches us not only of the power of sin and
evil, but also the much stronger love and
mercy of God. Even if we sin against Him, He
continues to show His love for us. He sent
Jesus to save us. Until now, God continues
to love and forgive us.

GOD CONTINUES TO SHOW HIS

LOVE and MERCY FOR US

through Jesus,
who died for us.

through the Church, a

loving and forgiving
community

through the Sacrament of

Reconciliation, the
sacrament where we
receive Gods
forgiveness and mercy

through the people

around us, who are
signs of Gods love
and mercy to us

WE FOCUS ON:
THE SACRAMENT OF
RECONCILIATION

CHURCH
The Sacrament of Reconciliation unites
us with the Church. When we sin, we
lost the trust of the people around us.
This sacrament helps us to be united
once again with the Church.

WHY CONFESS TO A PRIEST ?

priest represents
Christ and the Church
priest listens - Christ
listens
Jesus forgives us, not
the priest
priest represents the
Church, whom we have
hurt and hope to be
united once again

WE RESPOND

We are called to ask for

forgiveness and to share
the gift of forgiveness.

OUR PRAYER: Act of Contrition

My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my
heart. In choosing to do wrong and failing to
do good, I have sinned against you whom I
should love above all things. I firmly intend,
with your help, to do penance, to sin no more,
and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our
Savior Jesus Christ suffered and died for us,
my God, have mercy. Amen.
