Over the past 5-6 years I have not attended church more than once or twice a year. Can I go to confession and return to the faith or does the Church require more of me?
I am thrilled to hear of your return to Mass and the Sacraments! I’ve linked six thread below for you because of the resources in each. The first two lay out what you need to do to return to the Eucharist, the next two will help you to prepare for Confession, and the last two are just in case you wondered. If you have any further questions or concerns that are not answered by these links, please contact Catholic Answers directly. Welcome home!
