Was My Confession Valid?

[ChristIsTheWay]

I went to confession without having completed the penance assigned to me from my previous confession. I have done the penance for the new confession but was it valid? I will complete the penance for the old confession.

Yes, your confession was valid.

Yes… But remember always to do penance as quickly as possible.

If possible do the penance before leaving the Church, since it completes your confession. Do not “hold up” the grace which God wants to give to you. This grace will help you not to fall into the same sin. It strengthens you!

Thank you.

Yes, from now on I am going to do my penance as soon as possible.

Very good advice, thank you.
