The penitent and the priest begin with the sign of the Cross, saying:
In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
The priest then invites you to begin.
The penitent then states his or her sins.
Express the area(s), direction(s), pattern(s) in your life that you need to change and ask forgiveness using the examination of conscience found here.
After this, the priest will generally give some advice to the penitent and impose a penance. A penance helps us to change and to grow—to become the best we can be—the best God created us to be.
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart. In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I have sinned against You whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more, and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our Savior Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. In his name, my God, have mercy. Amen.
Priest: “Give thanks to the Lord for He is good” Penitent: “His mercy endures forever.” or Priest: “The Lord has freed you from your sins. Go in Peace.” Penitent: “Thanks be to God.”
When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and began to teach them, saying, (^3) “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (^4) “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. (^5) “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. (^6) “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. (^7) “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. (^8) “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. (^9) “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. (^10) “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (^11) “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. (^12) Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. (^14) “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; 15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
(^16) Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:1-
