Penance & Reconciliation
Not only does it [the Sacrament of Penance] free us from our sins but it also challenges us to have the same kind of compassion and forgiveness for those who sin against us. We are liberated to be forgivers. We obtain new insight into the words of the Prayer of St. Francis: "It is in pardoning that we are pardoned." (Source: USCCB)
The Sacrament of Penance is offered at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Basilica regularly on Saturdays at 11am prior to the Noon Mass.
