Confession #3145 My stories are more frustrating than funny. The local parish priest offers confession only on Saturday morning at 10am. I turned up about 10:30 and he was just sitting in his office. The confession took place in his office (The confessional at the church turned into a small storage room) I tried confessing my sins just mentioning what they are, and with every single sin he made up an excuse for them saying they are not sins but curiosity or something else... I was like Wha? I gave up in the end and he was just getting frustrated with me, then he absolved me and told me its childish to mention and list my sins. Apparently what I should do is only sayIve not been living to Christian standards and thats it. *sigh* He also told me that our sins are forgiven at mass so there is no need to go to confession unless it is a mortal sin, and a mortal sin is very, very hard sin to commit so I barely have to worry about it. On another occasion at WYD I saw a priest before a catechesis. It was VERY noisy in the church because there was music, song and dance so we had trouble hearing each other lol. Again the priest said along the same lines of dont go to confession unless its a mortal sin. Im incredibly lost... can someone help me here on WHEN and HOW I should go to confession and with what sins???
