7:00 pm in the Church. Numerous priests will be available. This is an excellent

opportunity to prepare for Christmas and the New Year.

Examination of Conscience:

1.

What habit or tendency within me needs conversion? 2. How can I be a more loving person?

3. Where have I contributed to the evils of the world?

4. What area of my life calls me to conversion and change?

5. Why do I act in a less than perfect way?

Example: pride, jealousy, anger, unkindness, etc.

6. Where do I need healing?

The Bible tells us that “If we acknowledge our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our

sins and cleanse us from every wrongdoing. If we say, ‘We have not sinned,’ we make Him a

liar, and His Word in not in us” (1 John 1:9-10).
