Peace be with you.
Receive the holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them
(John 20:19-23)
Come to the Lord and experience the extraordinary grace of his forgiveness. In the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation, also called Confession, we meet the Lord, who wants to grant forgiveness and the grace to live a renewed life in him. In this sacrament, he prepares us to receive him free from serious sin, with a lively faith, earnest hope and sacrificial love in the Eucharist. The Church sees confession as so important, every Catholic should go at least once a year. The priests at St. Gerald are eager to help you if you experience difficulty, hesitation or uncertainly about approaching the Lord in this sacrament. If you have not received this healing sacrament in a long time, we are ready to welcome you.
By the grace of the Holy Spirit, we seek forgiveness and repentance, let go of patterns of sin, grow in the life of virtue and witenss to a joyful conversion.
