In this little booklet, Paul Turner helps each of us prepare a thoughtful, deeply felt confession and receive God's mercy in the sacrament of Reconciliation. Whether you prefer to approach the sacrament privately during your parish's weekly scheduled times or through individual confession in the midst of a communal penance service, this booklet will open you up to the richness and power of this sacrament.Ideal for everyone, but especially helpful for:
• teens and adults approaching the sacrament for the first time
• those who have been out of touch with the Rite of Penance
• anyone wanting a deeper understanding of this great spiritual treasure of the Church.

Paul Turner holds a doctorate in sacred theology from Sant' Anselmo in Rome and is the author of many familiar pastoral resources, such as What Am I Doing for Lent This Year? and What Am I Doing for Triduum This Year?. He is a priest of the diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph and the pastor of St. Munchin parish in Cameron, MO.
