The Catholic Update Guide to Confession offers a concise understanding of what confession is and does for Catholics, and gives a step-by-step guide to participating in the sacrament. There is information on how to prepare for confession, prayers (including the Act of Contrition), and other helpful tips for making the experience meaningful and life-enriching. This resource is ideal for anyone returning to confession, preparing to receive for the first time, or those who want to review the sacrament of reconciliation as they prepare a child for the sacrament.
