Dear Parishioners,
“Reconciliation with God is made possible through the paschal mystery and the mediation of the Church,” wrote Pope Francis. And he also identifies the Sacrament of Reconciliation or Confession as a “source of true interior peace.” (Cf. MV, 17)
His predecessor, Saint John Paul II, also remarked that element in the Sacrament of Confession. He’s said: “In the formula of absolution, the ‘Rite of Penance’ expresses the relationship between forgiveness and peace, offered by God the Father in the Death and Resurrection of his Son, and the mediation of ‘the ministry of the Church’ (Ordo Paenitentiae, n. 46). While the sacrament signifies and brings about the gift of reconciliation, it also highlights the fact that reconciliation concerns our relationship not only with God the Father, but also with our brothers and sisters. These two aspects of reconciliation are closely correlated. Christ’s reconciling work occurs in the Church. She cannot reconcile on her own but only as a living instrument of Christ’s pardon, on the basis of the Lord’s precise mandate (cf. Jn 20: 23, Mt 18: 18). This reconciliation in Christ is achieved in a pre-eminent way in the celebration of the sacrament of Penance. But the Church’s whole inner being in its community dimension is characterized by a permanent disposition to reconciliation.”
“It is necessary to overcome a certain individualism in the way one thinks of reconciliation: the entire Church cooperates in the conversion of sinners through prayer, exhortation, fraternal correction and charitable support. Without reconciliation with our brothers and sisters, love would not take flesh in the individual. Just as sin damages the tissue of the Body of Christ, so reconciliation restores solidarity among the People of God.”
Here I’d like to digress a little bit from his General Audience (09/22/99) because I consider noteworthy mentioning, this beautiful paragraph that St. John Paul II wrote in his Encyclical Dives in Misericordia in 1980, nineteen years before he delivered this marvelous catechesis. He wrote: “Forgiveness is also the fundamental condition for reconciliation, not only in the relationship of God with man, but also in relationships between people. A world from which forgiveness was eliminated would be nothing but a world of cold and unfeeling justice, in the name of which each person would claim his or her own rights opposed with the rights of others; the various kinds of selfishness latent in man would transform life and human society into a system of oppression of the weak by the strong […] For this reason, the Church must consider it one of her principal duties –at every stage of history and especially in our modern age– to proclaim and to introduce into life the mystery of mercy, supremely revealed in Jesus Christ.” (Cf. 14)
He continued saying in his catechesis: “Ancient penitential practice highlighted the community-ecclesial aspect of reconciliation, particularly at the final moment of absolution by the Bishop with full readmission of the penitents into the community. The Church’s teaching and the penitential discipline promulgated after the Second Vatican Council urge the faithful to rediscover and restore to honor this community-ecclesial dimension of Reconciliation (cf. Lumen gentium, n. 11 and also Sacrosanctum Concilium, n. 27), while maintaining the doctrine on the need for individual confession.”
He then remarked as very important “to offer effective and updated paths of reconciliation which will lead to rediscovering the community dimension not only of penance, but of the Father’s entire plan of salvation for humanity. Thus,” St. John Paul II concluded, “the teaching of the Constitution Lumen gentium will be put into practice: ‘God has willed to make men holy and save them, not as individuals without any bond or link between them, but rather to make them into a people who might acknowledge him and serve him in holiness’ (9).”
I’d like to finish entrusting all of us, to our Blessed Mother, Refuge of Sinners, so that we may approach to the Throne of Mercy with the vessel of an ever greater trust.
“Confession is an act of honesty and courage –an act of entrusting ourselves, beyond sin, to the mercy of a loving and forgiving God.” (St. John Paul II, Homily, 09/14/87)
May God bless you all!

The Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary Program at Our Lady of Peace Church and Shrine is based on St. Louis de Montfort’s book True De-votion to Mary. This program consists of 33 days of prayer and exercises which help purify souls to pre-pare one for Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary. In this program, there are two different periods as-signed to these exercises:
The first period includes 12 days of exercises em-ployed in casting off the spirit of the world which is con-trary to Jesus Christ The second period consists of 3 weeks: the first de-voted to the Knowledge of Ourselves, the second devot-ed to the Knowledge of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the third devoted to that of Jesus Christ. All Consecration Participants will consecrate togeth-er on November 19, the Vigil of the Feast of Christ the King at the 5pm mass at Our Lady of Peace Church & Shrine. Prayers can be recited at one’s home if one is unable to go to the church.

Hard Sayings: A Catholic Approach to Answering Bible Difficulties ($21.95)
“Trent Horn’s impressive command of Catholic & skeptical sources makes Hard Sayings an invaluable resource for all who wrestle with Bible difficulties. It reveals the sanity of the Catholic approach to Scripture & shows how critics who attack supposed contradictions are missing the mark. This book should be required reading for every Christian who takes the Bible seriously.”
New from Trent Horn & Catholic Answers:
“Iota is a plunge into the darkest waters of human motivation and character. Set in a political prison at the end of World War II, the story of the ‘cage’ is also a metaphor for the imprisonment of minds and souls in various forms of unbelief. It is ulti-mately about redemption, sacrifice, and mercy.”
