Mass was good went Sunday morning....The Gospel message was man cannot serve God and money...I need to be reminded of that living in Vegas and playing poker for a living...Didn't receive Communion because I didn't make it to confession....Hopefully will receive next week....

Hey Josh -- Good for you on getting to Mass!!!!!

 

 

As far as confession... a suggestion from a fellow sinner here.... if you wait until

 

1) I'm ready

2) I know exactly what to say

3) I remember every one of my sins

4) it's the right moment

5) add your favorite reason here:  _______________________

 

you will wait forever to make that confession.

 

Just call the local parish and say you want to go to confession and can father meet you at the church?

 

OR look for a confessional with a light on and walk into it and kneel down...

 

OR check your parish website when the confessions are going to be and make a date with God.

 

 

And remember this is a time to be happy excited -- getting right with God is a chance to celebrate it as the special, wonderful occasion it is meant to be!!!! 

 

*  You are going to be putting yourself back into the right place with God and yourself!  

 

*  You will be able to go to Communion!

 

Plan a nice meal or cup of coffee with God for afterwards to celebrate!

 

 

If you want help finding a place that has confessions, or aren't sure how to make a confession if it has been a long time, don't hesitate to private message me -- I'll be happy to help.  I bet most/all of us would be!

 

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!

 

I'm going to be on retreat next weekend (and will be leaving on Friday morning and returning Sunday night)... but would love to know you will be going to Communion with me next weekend....  praying for you!!!!

Actually, no, realizing that you know you know is good.... and working a plan to 'just do it' is good!  So.... 'just do it' !  ;)

Peace be with you brother in christ...

Try to attend holy mass even when you can't receive holy communion bro and make a spiritual communion when everyone is going up for communion. Sometimes it's hard but worth it, there is a great blessing in just attending holy mass and participating in the prayers of the liturgy. You can even go up for a blessing if you can't receive even though your already a catholic christian. :) luv yah bro.

 

God bless you.

 

P.s. The church isn't against gambling in general as far as i'm aware, but it is against gambling more then you can afford. :)

And no one can afford to gamble with eternity for their soul.

So I was ready to go to 5pm Mass...Was in the shower and realised my clothes were in the washer and I never threw them in the dryer....I only have one pair of jeans at the moment and a pair of jogging pants that I could wear also....But would rather wear the jeans....Anyhow they were both soaked in the washer so it looks like I will miss Mass....Will have to take this to Confession this week....Guess I will hit up an aa meeting instead....
