    Our Lord does not keep us guessing about whether or not we are forgiven. When the priest utters the words of absolution, your soul is instantly and completely healed. Sacramentally, Jesus is present in the confessional in the person of the priest. If He were here on earth, wouldn’t you ask Him for forgiveness? If you want to experience the Divine Mercy in a real way, confession is the way to do it!!

    Together with the Diocese of Metuchen in the revival of devotion and belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, Adoration will be every 2nd Sunday of the month following the 11 am Mass. After Holy Communion, the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed in the monstrance on the altar, Father will then say the final closing prayer, and those in attendance will kneel before the Blessed Sacrament in prayer. Stay for 15 minutes, 30 minutes or the full hour.  God has called you to believe in His Son, Jesus Christ who is truly present in the Eucharist. May this time be well spent with Our Lord and may you receive many graces from Him.
