SUMMARY:St. Gregory the Great Lenten Penance Service
DESCRIPTION:ST. GREGORY THE GREAT\nLENTEN PENANCE SERVICE AT IHM\nTUESDAY, MARCH 24, 2026 AT 7:00 PM\nLent is a wonderful time to celebrate the reconciling love and the healing graces our Lord offers us.  If it is has been a long time since you have received this sacrament, there is no need to be nervous!  As Pope Francis stated, “There are people who are afraid to go to confession, forgetting that they will not encounter a severe judge there, but the immensely merciful Father.”\nThe St. Gregory the Great family is offering a parish-wide Lenten Communal Reconciliation Service at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, March 24th at Immaculate Heart of Mary.  The communal service is an opportunity to join our sisters and brothers in asking for forgiveness and healing during this important time of the year.  All are invited to join with our faith community to reflect on our lives through Scripture readings and songs followed by an examination of conscience, ending with individual confessions with a priest.  As we approach the Easter Season, we invite everyone to begin anew with souls nourished from the gift of forgiveness God offers us all.\nYou don’t need to memorize any words to receive Christ’s healing gift, though you are welcome to use the prayers set forth by the Church if that makes you more comfortable.  Most importantly, remember that this is a sacrament of healing – it is not to cause shame, but to help you openly receive God’s sacramental grace.\nOur God is a forgiving God. Please consider participating in this sacramental action.\n
