I would like to go more often but at the rate I’m going it is twice a year for me.
 
About three weeks ago. I need to go badly. Hopefully this week.
 
I selected monthly but it’s really more like every two months. It used to be once a year (if that). There was a three-year stretch between by first and second confessions. :eek:
 
A year and a half ago because I had to. About 32 or so years prior to that.
 
Yesterday. No hard and fast rule for me but “monthly” would be pretty close.
 
Been a few months. It kind of varies for me - normally it would be like 2 or maybe 3 times a year, but I probably went 5 times last year - it really just kind of depends on whether or not I feel I should/need to go or not.
 
**CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH:
2041** The precepts of the Church are set in the context of a moral life bound to and nourished by liturgical life. The obligatory character of these positive laws decreed by the pastoral authorities is meant to guarantee to the faithful the very necessary minimum in the spirit of prayer and moral effort, in the growth in love of God and neighbor:
2042 The first precept (“You shall attend Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation and rest from servile labor”) requires the faithful to sanctify the day commemorating the Resurrection of the Lord as well as the principal liturgical feasts honoring the mysteries of the Lord, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the saints; in the first place, by participating in the Eucharistic celebration, in which the Christian community is gathered, and by resting from those works and activities which could impede such a sanctification of these days.82
The second precept (“You shall confess your sins at least once a year”) ensures preparation for the Eucharist by the reception of the sacrament of reconciliation, which continues Baptism’s work of conversion and forgiveness.83
Just a friendly reminder that we are required to confess at least once a year.
 
Really somewhere between weekly and monthly, but I put monthly. How about Every two or three weekly.
 
Just over a week. I go once a month now (unless otherwise necessary). I like going every 2-3, but my spiritual director was transfered to a parish much further away.
 
a fact I will relay to the priest the next time I go.
what is it with the upkick in personal questions on CAF, which I thought were banned?
Amen!

I couldn’t vote as the “What business is this of yours” was not an option
 
I last went to confession about a month ago. I aim to go about monthly but sometimes it is less and sometimes it is more, it depends if I need it or not.
