Priest said "I absolve you in the name of...?

[Maragal]

The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit"…

He didnt say “I absolve you of your sins” just “I absolve you”…

I know its a small thing…but valid?

Of course it is.

THANKS Irishmom! I had this idea that because he didnt say “of your sins” there was something “irregular” about it…is this me getting scrupulous???

 

[po18guy]

You are right - a small thing. Let’s not put too fine a point on it. What else could he absolve you of?
