Confession

or, The Reconciliation of a Penitent

The traditional Anglican rule concerning Confession is “All may; some should; none must.” If any serious sin is bothering your conscience, you should definitely make your confession to a priest and receive absolution before receiving Holy Communion. Many parishioners find the discipline of regular confession an immense comfort and aid to spiritual growth.

 

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is available by appointment or upon request. Confessions are normally heard in one of the confessionals in the church, but may be heard in other private locations as well.

 

Please consult the Rector or one of the priests for guidance on how to prepare for and make your confession.
