How do confessions work at a Catholic church?
How do confessions work at a Catholic church? Also, how does Communion work?
What I mean is, do you come at a certain time, or do you just tell the Father you wish to confess? I mean, if you tell him who you are, doesn't that defeat the purpose?
I'd be most obliged if someone could explain this to me.
when you enter a "confessional" at the catholic church you start with "forgive me father for I have sinned and it has been a really long time since my last confession." If you want to confess and aren't in a catholic church you can just talk to Jesus and tell him you are sorry for what you have done.
The time you take communion in the catholic church, the church teaches it (the wafer) is the actual body and blood of Christ. Remember He said "as oft as you do this, do it in remembrance of me." Actually, some churches do it once a month so I guess it should be "as seldom as you do it, do it in remembrance of me."
oops---forgot something. In catholic church the priest assigns penance for you--actually telling you how sorry you are for doing the sins you are confessing. In your heart, you know what you have done and God allows you to repent without repetitive prayers. Just be honest and mean it when you say you are sorry for your deeds.
Hope this helps.

Ask a college student today what he knows about the Catholic Church and his answer might come down to one word: "corruption." But that one word should be "civilization." Western civilization has given us the miracles of modern science, the wealth of free-market economics, the security of the rule of law, a unique sense of human rights and freedom, charity as a virtue, splendid art and music, a philosophy grounded in reason, and innumerable other gifts that we take for granted as the wealthiest and most powerful civilization in history... |
