Evening of Confession this Wednesday

To: Clergy, Religious and Laity  of the Archdiocese of New Orleans

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:

It is our archdiocesan  tradition  to offer  the Sacrament of Reconciliation, better known as confession, on a weekday evening in September. I am pleased to inform you that many people in the Archdiocese  of New Orleans  have taken advantage of this opportunity.

This year confessions will be available on Wednesday, September 14, 2022, the Feast of the Exaltation  of the Cross, from  5:00 PM - 6:30 PM.  Please consider inviting the healing Christ  into your heart  with his promise of mercy.

Pope Francis reminds us, "Confession  is the sacrament  of the tenderness of God, his way of embracing us."

Please consider having your family come to church together for Confession  on Wednesday, September 14.

Wishing you God's blessings, ram

Sincerely in Christ,

Most Reverend Gregory  M. Aymond
Archbishop of New Orleans
