Confession Tomorrow
As Catholics, we are called to go to confession at least once per year. The Lenten season, as a time of repentance, is a perfect time to pursue this sacrament. On Tuesday, February 28th, we will go to confession as a class.
Catholics for centuries have found it profitable to examine their consciences in light of the Ten Commandments. Click below for an Examination of Conscience that is based on the Ten Commandments and directed at teenagers.

Confession Video
Below is a good video on the history, purpose and practice of the Sacrament of Recollection, the website it appears on described it as:
“Face it, the Sacrament of Reconciliation is a mystery to many, Catholic and non-Catholic alike. What is the real purpose of this sacrament? Why must a priest be involved? Doesn't God already know my shortcomings? How can Jesus really forgive me?
Fr. Paul Campbell, S.J., tackles these issues and illuminates this sacrament through its evolution in the church. Drawing on his own experience and those of his fellow priests, Fr. Campbell discusses the difficulties many face in understanding, accepting and participating in this sacrament.”
