PROSPECT HEIGHTS — Bishop Robert Brennan invites Catholics across Brooklyn and Queens to confession on Reconciliation Monday, March 25.

The goal of Reconciliation Monday, held during Holy Week, is to encourage Catholics to receive the sacrament of reconciliation in preparation to celebrate Christ’s Resurrection. Most parishes will have a priest available to hear confessions from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

“Reconciliation Monday is an opportunity to experience the healing power of our Lord,” Bishop Brennan said. “As we seek to grow closer to the Lord, let us ask our all-loving and merciful God to forgive us of our sins. Let us prepare ourselves to celebrate Easter with a clean heart, free of the burden of our sins.”

Faithful are invited to visit a parish in Brooklyn and Queens, although times and availability may change based on the parish. For a complete listing of parishes, please visit: dioceseofbrooklyn.org/parishes/locator/
