Reconciliation as Covenant -- The stories of Sacred Scripture reveal God's relationship with God's people down through the ages.  That covenant relationship is witnessed in our own stories.  Embracing the connection between those stories can help us understand that we are loved.

Celebrating Reconciliation -- The official rituals of the Church's celebration of the sacrament of Reconciliation have strong implications for the way we treat ourselves and others.  There is a wonderful connection between Jesus' healing ministry and the ministry of reconciliation to which each of us is called.

The Fruits of Reconciliation -- Just what happens to the individual and the community as a result of the act of Reconciliation is directly related to the baptismal call to be the Body of Christ in the world.

  A wonderful three nights.  So very glad I came.  Inspiritational.

  I now have a better understanding of reconciliation.

  I felt the Holy Spirit touch me during this mission.

  It was truly an eye opener for me.  Fr. Lou was fantastic.

  You are very blessed.  You’ve helped give direction to my life.  Thank you for sharing your gifts and

  insights with us.

  Best mission I ever attended.  Will do my best to practice what you taught us.

  The mission was very, very moving.  It helped me to understand my faults and my plan to correct

  them.

  I thoroughly enjoyed the mission.  I go on silent retreat in two weeks where I will reflect more on your

  lessons of the mission.

  This was such a breath of fresh air – we always need to look at what Jesus wants of us in a new and

  challenging way.

  As a Protestant who just recently remarried into a Catholic family, I was very impressed with the

  mission. I enjoyed it.
