Series on Conversion by Fr Haggerty (3/8)
Going to confession regularly can become routine — a checklist — instead of what it can be: an encounter with God. Examine not only your sins, but also the one you’ve sinned against; the Lord.

It is definitely not easy. But we are invited to become fathers and mothers after the heart of God.

Give It To God
We can’t do anything more to earn God’s love, we have it already! We can be weak, we can be poor, and we can be sinners—and that’s okay. We can bring all that to the Lord and that’s where we start. Jesus doesn’t want us to give him the…
