The Sanctuary will hold a Mass Confession event this Wednesday, the 30th.

Next Wednesday, the Church of Father Eustáquio will host priests from the deanery for a large confession drive. Several priests will be available to hear confessions on the Sanctuary premises, and lines will be organized on a first-come, first-served basis.

With the increase in the number of faithful seeking confession because of Easter, parishes traditionally organize joint confession drives. At Padre Eustáquio's church, the priests will be available at the following times:

From 8:30 am to 10:00 am  
From 2:30 PM to 4:00 PM  
• From 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM

Throughout the day, the Sanctuary will hold masses as usual (at 7 am, 12 pm and 7 pm), in addition to the Celebration of the Votive Mass to Blessed Father Eustace, which takes place every 30th at 3 pm.

The Sacrament of Confession is a return to God. Those who approach the sacrament of penance obtain, through divine mercy, forgiveness for the offense committed against the Lord and, at the same time, are reconciled with the Church they have wounded, collaborating in the conversion from their sins through charity, example, and prayer.
