Yes, Monsignor laughed at me. He could not believe that i was being so honest and thourough with him.
He told me it had been a long time since he had heard such a good confession…now thats scary.

Are people not honest and do they tell everything?

Another priest was joking with me about his ADD and his medication…lol
 
Oh yes, my good friend went to confession and told us that as she was done Father said for her to pray for him and she looked at him with big eyes and said “Ok, are you sick?”…lol

He laughed with her and said" you know your suppose to pray for your priests right?"…lol

Just this year, while in the confessional, I had a slip of the tongue that set Father back on his heels and then gave him a good laugh.

At the end of Confession, I was thinking how grateful I am to our Lord for the sacrament of reconciliation at the same time I was saying “for these and all my sins…”

What came out of my mouth was, “For these and all of my sins I am heartily grateful” which was quickly followed by stammering and stuttering and “I mean, sorry… I’m heartily sorry.”

Father was silent for what seemed like an eternity, then laughed out loud.

That certainly gives a new meaning to “O happy fault”!
 
Actually, I have a confession story that I think is pretty darn funny. It certainly shows the cultural divide of Americans and British people.

In England I was going to Confession early on and recounting a story of how I felt uncharitable. I told the priest I walked past a bum on the street and didn’t give money when I had some, and the priest sort of grinned. Then I mentioned how I kept passing the bum and feeling sorry for him and this and that, and finally the priest interrupted me and said, smiling, “We don’t say ‘bum’ in England. Here it means an a–!” We got a good hearty laugh out of it, and boy did I feel like the clumsy American!
 
I got a chuckle out of a priest a few years ago after being away from the sacrament for some time.a

When I entered the confessional I knelt down and began “Bless me father for I have sinned and it would be another sin if I told you I had any idea how long it’s been since my last confession”.

Cracked up my confessor when I said that to get the devil away from me when he tempts me, I envision putting the devil in the microwave oven. He laughed…
 
Well, this confession didn’t make the Priest chuckle, but in hind sight I would have to say it’s pretty funny…

I was in roughly 5th grade and a very, very, very frequent alter boy for the morning masses and any other masses that came along. I wound up serving two masses one day somehow - I think one in the AM and then one in the afternoon for school or something like that and I accidently took Communion at both masses…

Well, the next day, I promptly found myself being confronted by the greatest hair-pulling-nun that ever walked the planet - Sr. Sylvester. She chewed me out for taking communion twice in one day and made me confess to Sacralidge (sp) the next time we had confession.

The priest was dumb-founded. He considered Sacralidge as Satanic abuse of a holy object or something of that nature and was just shocked to hear it from a youngster. I don’t think he understood the exact nature of my “Sacralidge” and sounded quite shocked. In hindsight, I can laugh at this.

BTW, my guess is that Sr. Sylvester is now 120+ years old and still pulling hair in a Catholic school somewhere.
