Dear Friends in the Lord,
As we approach the great celebration of Christmas, the birth of our Savior, I wanted to take the opportunity to remind you that today, December 16, all parishes in the Archdiocese of New York and the Diocese of Brooklyn will offer the Sacrament of Confession from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. for Reconciliation Monday! There is no better way to prepare to welcome Jesus than taking part in this wonderful opportunity for reconciliation. To find a parish near you in our archdiocese, you can use the parish finder on our website here.
Has it been a while since you last went to Confession? Not sure what to do or say? Don’t worry. We’ve collected a few resources to help you prepare for confession at our website, here. Or, you can just ask the priest to guide you. He’ll be happy to help.
May these final days of Advent be a time of prayerful preparation for you and your loved ones.
