Penance Service/Adoration at Incarnation Church on Wednesday, March 11th at 7 – 8 PM

 

 

Lent is a sacred season of conversion — a time to return to the Lord with all our hearts. Making a good confession is one of the most powerful ways to prepare for Easter. In the Sacrament of Reconciliation, we encounter not judgment, but mercy. Christ lifts the burden of sin, restores our peace, and strengthens us to begin again. A sincere confession requires prayerful examination, honest repentance, and a firm purpose of amendment. Don’t let fear or embarrassment keep you away — Jesus is waiting to heal and renew you. This Lent, make a good confession and experience the freedom of God’s grace.

Regular Confessions and Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament during Lent: 

 

Begin this holy season with a good confession! Confessions and Adoration –Saturdays: 2:45 PM – 4:00 PM at Incarnation Church. Monday to Friday: 30 minutes before every daily Mass at Holy Infancy Church.
