The confession (or disclosure) of sins, even from a simply human point of view, frees us and facilitates our reconciliation with others. Through such an admission man looks squarely at the sins he is guilty of, takes responsibility for them, and thereby opens himself again to God and to the communion of the Church in order to make a new future possible.
CCC 1455
First Reconciliation
Preparation for the Sacrament of First Reconciliation takes place during regular Faith Formation meetings followed by special Sacramental Prep sessions held during the month of May. First Reconciliation is held at the end of the retreat on the day before First Communion.
