Father Brent Maher will give a talk on the subject of general confession on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at 9 am at St. Agnes Catholic Church, 749 East Boulevard, Baton Rouge. He will discuss the practice, benefits, and tradition of making a general confession, in which all the sins of one's life are confessed, not just those committed since the previous confession. General confession is often done before a major life transition, such as ordination to the priesthood, sacramental marriage, and profession of religious vows, and is sometimes recommended as a part of a serious retreat. The talk is free and open to the public. Contact St. Agnes Parish office at 225-383-4127 with any questions about the event.
