I find it hard sometimes. But it is necessary. Whether I like it or not, is of no consequence.

everybody dislikes confession when they do it, but i always find i have more peace and am way happier afterwards

That too.

And you get to go to heaven instead of you know, not

But more constructively, what would di the trick of making you like it more?

The peace and feeling of resolution afterwards

Hey, it's not like I need something to entice me into going, I still go regardless of whether I like it or not.

I just felt like the only person who dislikes going to Confession.

A prayer request for my friend Oliver who's being ordained as a priest today. 🙏

May God bless him and the Holy Spirit guide his work 🙏

My wife hates going but does it

It's an act of humility but necessary, I never like going but honestly after committing a serious sin I feel "unplugged" and being done in confession and (hopefully) being in a state of grace is the best feeling

Guys, maybe someone of you can help wit this.
I am looking for a saint but i can't remember who he or she was. I only can remember part of a story i once read from him. The only sentence from the text i can remember is the following: God ended the life of a young girl short after her first communion for this first sin she comitted afterwards, but he allows others to sin for a long longer time (or the amount of sinful actions in other wording). This was not about the saint him or herself so it wasn't Ellen Organ as others said earlier.
Please don't go screaming heresy at me as i probably miss a whole lot of the story and meaning. If i remember correctly it was how much sin meant for God and when God has so to speak 'enough' of our personal sinning.
If you could help i would be very grateful.

Could be Ellen Organ perhaps?

That’s what I was thinking

But I’ve never heard the story told that way

I never heard about her in general so i really doubt it's from her.

Little Nellie of Holy God, she’s the unofficial patron saint of Cork in Ireland

But she died very young

Like 4 years old right after her first communion

I read that she died having 7 years old, and just six months after ver first communion

I will look it up, although i am sure it was a story from a saint who told it like something he or she saw in a vision or something.

Could be, tbh it’s been a while since I’ve read about her

The way Muslims talk about white women is absolutely disgusting.

@Based Chav , what do you mean?

Soup Kitchen I work at has a stall at a local carnival today.

Not the best spot in terms of footfall or safety. So there was a bit of heated discussion with the carnival representative who was, tbf, a bit rude.

Soon as she's gone, these 4 Muslim guys are there chatting "she's probably a slut", etc. I'll spare you the details.

Good grief

that is pretty abhorent

tfw a few of my church going catholic friends attended the lgbt parade

pretty damn angry about it

I'm*

I’m being attacked by a queer “””””priest””””” in a group for saying some crazy modernist female pastor is wrong to be pro-choice and pro-LGBT.

Smh

Oof

I wonder how many choirboys he’s fantasised about during those 40 years...

This shit is sad, annoying and sad

It’s bloody well infuriating.

Sodomite priests used to be executed.

Now they’re celebrated as a sign of progress and diversity.

OOOOOOOOOF
