Catholic Examination of Conscience

TIPS FOR THE SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION (Also known as Confession):

Remember, God is love, and He loves YOU. He came to redeem the world, not to condemn it (John 3:17). We are all a work in progress, and just as we are called to treat others with mercy, kindness, and without judgment, we are called to treat ourselves. It takes a good person to admit that he or she makes mistakes. You are not bad because you go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation. You are a good person trying to become even better.
