Reconciliation at Saint Jerome

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a way of participating in God’s incomprehensible mercy.

We invite you to rediscover the healing power of the Sacrament of Reconciliation. For many Catholics going to confession is something that is feared and often avoided. Every time we sin, we hurt ourselves, other people and God. Reconciliation (also known as Confession or Penance) is a sacrament instituted by Jesus Christ in His love and mercy to offer sinners forgiveness.

We acknowledge our sins before God and the Church. We express our sorrow in a meaningful way, receive the forgiveness of Christ and the Church, make reparation for what we have done and resolve to do better in the future.
