The Sacrament of Penance has also been known as "Confession" and "The Sacrament of Reconciliation". No matter what it's called, it offers a few gifts from God -- of course forgiveness, but also healing and freedom. There's hardly anything better than having peace in our lives and this sacrament leads to great peace. Some give up this sacrament because they have fallen for the same weaknesses over and over again. Do you know why this is a good sign? Or some folks don't know what to confess -- ask your family and they'll probably give you some ideas. (LOL) Or for some they either never experienced this sacrament or it's been a really long time since they celebrated it. This workshop can help on all these levels and even more!
