Free yourself from the shackles of sin

Have you ever wondered why it’s so dreadful to go to Confession? We should be thinking about the freedom, joy and peace we experience afterward! This weekend in his homily, Bishop explained how the fear of Confession is likely rooted in insecurity and shame. This insecurity and shame can keep us from receiving God’s grace and mercy in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, even though we know we need it. As Easter approaches, Bishop reminded us that we still have time to reconcile with God and receive his forgiveness before we celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection.
