Does CACINA believe in confession?
All people sin. Sin is a sad but inherent part of a human nature, which has yet to fully align itself with the Will of God. As sinners we recognize the need for repentance and reordering of our lives; but also trust in the infinite love and forgiveness of our Lord. Reconciliation is the great Sacrament by which those who have wandered on paths, which lead astray, are reunited and reconciled to the Lord and His People. Though not required, private confession is available from any priest by request. During the Penitential Rite of the Mass, general absolution is customarily granted to contrite penitents.
