CONFESSION TIPS�We should…�

1.� …examine our consciences regularly and thoroughly;�

2.� …wait our turn in line patiently;�

3.� …come at the time confessions are scheduled, not a few minutes � before they are to end;�

4.� …speak distinctly but never so loudly that we might be over� heard;�

5.� …state our sins clearly and briefly without rambling;�

6.� …confess all mortal sins in number and kind;�

7.� …listen carefully to the advice the priest gives;�

8.� …confess our own sins and not someone else’s;�

9.� …carefully listen to and remember the penance and be sure to understand it;�

10.�…use a regular formula for confession so that it is familiar and comfortable;�

11.�…never be afraid to say something “embarrassing”… just say it;�

12.�…never worry that the priest thinks we are jerks…. he is usually impressed by our � courage;�

13.�…never fear that the priest will not keep our confession secret… he is bound by the � Seal;�

14.�…never confess “tendencies” or “struggles”… just sins;�

15.�…never leave the confessional before the priest has finished giving absolution;�

16.�…memorize an Act of Contrition;�

17.�…answer the priest’s questions briefly if he asks for a clarification;�

18.�…ask questions if we can’t understand what he means when he tells us something;�

19.�…keep in mind that sometimes priests can have bad days just like we do;�� remember that priests must go to confession too … they know what we are going � through.�

ST PETER, The Cornerstone of Catholicism�

As part of the 150th anniversary of our parish, we will offer a series on St. Peter every Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.. This DVD series, hosted by Dr. Tim Gray from the Augustine Institute, will focus on the life of St. Peter. Even if you cannot attend every class, please consider coming when you can.�

WAYS TO PRAY FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY�Visit a cemetery: Pray over the graves of your departed loved ones, or visit a random graveyard and pray for those who may have no one to pray for them. Simply doing this gains a partial indulgence for those in purgatory.*� While you’re there, sprinkle holy water on the graves. If you make this visit during the first eight days of the month dedicated to the Holy Souls (November 1�8) you can gain a plenary indulgence applicable to the souls in purgatory.��

When passing by a cemetery, pray the short Eternal Rest prayer. This prayer carries a partial indulgence applicable to the poor souls:�“Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord. And let the perpetual light shine upon them. And may the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.” �Practice the tradition of praying the Eternal Rest prayer (above) before and after your meals as an easy way to remember to pray for the holy souls every day. You can also pray the prayer between the decades of your daily rosary.��

Prayer by St. Gertrude the Great�“Eternal Father, I offer You the most precious blood of thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal Church, for those in my own home, and in my family. Amen.”��

Eucharistic Adoration: visit the Blessed Sacrament to make acts of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on behalf of those in purgatory.��

Sacrifices: practice small acts of self�denial throughout your day and offer these penances up for the poor souls.��

Offer up your Holy Communions for the souls in purgatory.��

Have Masses said for your departed loved ones, especially on the anniversary of his or her death.�
