Last Sunday at the parish I attended, the priest preached an excellent homily about confession. He pointed out how Pope John Paul II would go to confession every day. If this man, who many consider to be a saint, felt the need to confess his sins every single day, what about us? The priest, who is quite old, noted how in the last 30 years he has seen a huge drop in the number of people who attend confession regularly. This sacrament, and the grace received through it, is badly needed today. We are all sinners. God is waiting for us to ask for forgiveness.
So...go to confession! And encourage your friends to do the same. Maybe sending them a link to this lighthearted video would help:
