Reconciliation
“Those who approach the sacrament of Penance obtain pardon from God’s mercy for the offense committed against him, and are, at the same time, reconciled with the Church which they have wounded by their sins and which by charity, by example, and by prayer labors for their conversion.”
– Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1422
​​
​"Do not doubt, do not hesitate, never despair of the mercy of God. "
​- St. Isidore of Seville
