My university offers confession an hour before one of their Sunday Masses. I try to go every week. The only downside is that I would have to go to the Mass right after since it’s the last Mass of the day, so I don’t have wiggle room in my schedule to go to other Masses. Also, it’s the same priest every week and I hate telling the same priest the same sins every week, especially because he always asks, “What do you want to work on?” and don’t want to say the same things every week.
In high school a local retired bishop would give morning Mass in our chapel before school. It started too early for me, but I would go at the end just for confession. I usually went every two weeks or once a month depending, though I aimed for once every two weeks.
I usually don’t go to confession in the summer.
This past weekend I was on retreat and went to confession with a great confessor. Then on Wednesday our school offered confession with many priests hearing confession. I decided to go again. I got the same priest as in the retreat. I felt awkward saying, “It’s been three days since my last confession.”
