Through the Sacrament of Reconciliation we are reconciled with God so why not take advantage of the Lenten Penance Services offered in our area?
Confession helps us to get back on the path that God intended for us. The relationship with our Lord is strengthened and we are able to see Christ’s light in our life. The following are Lenten Penance Services that will be taking place at churches in our area:
March 9: St. Mary’s – La Porte
March 15: St. Hyacinth’s – Deer Park
March 22: St. Bernadette’s – ClearLake
March 23: Mary Queen – Friendswood
March 25: St. Paul’s – NassauBay
