I have committed the sacrilege of not telling a Mortal Sin in Confession. Please pray that I stay safe until next week when I can get to confession again. And please pray that if something should happen to me, the Lord still forgives me, although he has no reason to save my sorry spineless self.
 
Blessed Mother, please watch over our friend, TeutonicKnight. Bring him safely through this night, give him the rest he needs. We pray, also, that he can get himself to confession as soon as possible.Amen.

Sir Knight, please say the Act of Contrition and rest, knowing that Our Loving Lord has heard your sincere apologies for whatever sins you have committed and not told at your last confession. Trust in His Mercy.

Is there anyway you can contact your priest between Masses tomorrow and ask him to hear your quick confession? I had to do this once, and my pastor was glad to hear my confession of a mortal sin while we were getting things ready for that morning’s Mass. Most priests are thrilled when a person contacts them for confession. If you cannot get your confession heard before your Sunday Mass, then, of course, you must forego receiving Holy Communion (if you are in mortal sin). Just remain in your pew and make a spiritual Communion.

Try to contact your priest as soon as possible to arrange a confession.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
That never was it known
That anyone who fled to thy protection,
Implored thy help,
Or sought thy intercession
Was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence,
We fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, our Mother.
To thee we come,
Before thee we stand,
Sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of The Word Incarnate,
Despise not our petitions
But, hear and answer us.
Amen.

Make a good act of contrition, Sir Knight, and try to sleep. Your Guardian Angel is watching over you. All will be well.

Good night.🙂
 
Dear Lord, please forgive, and please give this person courage to confess at the next opportunity for Confession.
Lord please keep this person from serious sin.
 
I am praying for you. May you discover how much God loves you, and stop considering yourself ‘sorry spinless’. May the Holy Spirit give you the gift of fortitude so you may have the courage to confess first of all the sins that are more difficult or embarrasing to confess.
May you feel the loving presence of Mary and of all the saints praying for you and happy to see you willing to confess your mortal sins. And may you know that He who gave His life for sinners, He who came for the ones that need a Doctor, not for the healthy ones, has already forgiven you, but you need to receive the Sacrament in order to receive His grace and His embrace.

Ha. It’s funny you should mention contacting a Priest and asking if he’ll hear my confession, as that is what got me into this trouble in the first place (Which, by the way, Brother Jay told me I have not committed a sacrilege, for the reason in which you’re about to read). Basically, after Mass yesterday, I asked my Priest if he would hear my confession. You could obviously tell that he was annoyed by it, so he simply said, “I have something to do first but I’ll be there in a minute.” Much different than the last time I asked when he was rather enthusiastic that someone asked. So I went to the front and waited, and when he walked into the confessional I went in. Originally, I had three sins I wanted to confess, but for some reason during the confession, I thought “Wait a minute. There’s no way this is a sin.” The reason I thought that is it is rather odd, and I honestly don’t know anymore if it is a sin. So instead, I confessed my sins. Then, as he was speaking, I remembered two other sins I wanted to confess, so I interrupted him, which also annoyed him. By this time I felt horrible at just asking him to do it (As he clearly didn’t want to). So by the time he asked me to do my Act of Contrition, I suddenly thought “What was I thinking?! Of course this is a sin!” but I was afraid to say it because I didn’t want to annoy him further, so I didn’t state it and simply said my Act of Contrition, feeling horrible the entire time.

The reason Brother Jay said this was not sacrilege is because I really wanted to confess it, but I felt pressured not to. So there’s good news. Thank you for the prayers though. I really appreciate them. I’ll definitely return the favor for all of you.
 
Praying for your intentions….

Lord Jesus, You have said, “Learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart.” With confidence in Your loving heart which offers rest to weary souls, we come to You in this time of special need. In Your unfailing love, read the prayer that is written on our hearts, and grant the grace that we ask of You, in accordance with Your holy will. In Your name we pray. Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, and sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother, to thee I come, before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but, in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.
 
A priest is always obliged to hear a Confession if asked.
Say a prayer for the priest. Holy God please help priests to be patient when others’ requests for confession feels inconvenient.
 
Lord, may ATeutonicKnight find another priest to hear his confession by appointment so he can confess before next week. If it is impossible for him to get to confession until next week then please help him to make an act of perfect contrition with the resolve to confess his sins as soon as possible. May he know that an act of perfect contrition when properly made with the resolve to confess ASAP will keep him safe until he makes his next confession. May he know that an act of perfect contrition requires him to confess out of love for you, not out of fear of hell or the horror of sin. May he read up on making an act of perfect contrition so he understands it fully. Thank you, Lord for hearing my prayer.
 
I pray to you, Father, and thank you for hearing me, and also for hearing all of your children when we raise our voices to you and ask for your forgiveness. Thank you for the wonderful sacrament of confession, so that we can know we are forgiven, and that our everlasting soul is in your sweet friendship again. I pray and ask on behalf of Knight, that his intention to confess all of his mortal sins be one which always comes to pass. I ask that he is strengthened during confession, and helped along by your Holy Hands so that he can be granted absolution. I ask also that we may follow his example, and always desire to remedy our mistakes through your grace, and in your protection. Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
