RECONCILIATION Parent and child workshop

Aims of this session Understand what a Sacrament is Understand what it means to be reconciled Understand the steps to reconciliation To have dialogue within families about the Sacrament of Reconciliation

What does “reconcile” mean? To come to a state of agreement or harmony To settle a difference To restore peace or friendship between people or countries

“Some view the seven Sacraments as somewhat magical. As if they were a sudden divine intervention in our everyday world… if we say the right words and do the actions correctly, God will attach grace to them.” How do we view this statement? Discuss How should we view the Sacraments? What is a sacrament?

They are the formal and public actions of Catholic faith. A ritual of an important human experience A sacrament connects these human experiences to the Catholic faith.

What is a sacrament? Parish based – we are initiated into the family of the Church Family centred – the primary educators in the way of faith School supported – learn about and prepare to celebrate the Sacraments When we enter into the sacrament, it helps us to look at life in a different way.

The steps in reconciling Admit Say sorry / feel sorry Be forgiven Reconcile (make up) Do you have a card that stops short of saying, “Sorry” but vaguely hints at some wrongdoing?

Stories of Reconciliation Session 1: Stories of my family Session 2: Stories in Scripture

My family Talk about great times your family likes to share together What makes them special? How does everyone feel when things are going well?

My family What things happen in families that cause people to get upset with each other? What words/behaviours cause the problem – no blaming. These things happen in our friendships too.

My Family How was the problem fixed? What words and behaviours helped?

What do I see?What do I think about what I see? What does it make me wonder?

Scripture stories Can you think of a scripture story about reconciliation?

The Lost Son What words or actions of reconciliation / forgiveness do we see in the story of The Lost Son? How do these compare with our own family experiences of reconciliation?

What is a sacrament? Religious rites which confer special graces A ritual of an important human experience If sacraments are to be meaningful in our lives, we need to view them as experiences that are part of our lives.

Parents’ experiences of the sacrament of Reconciliation What can you remember when you first experienced the Sacrament of Reconciliation? What do you want your child to experience through the Sacrament of Reconciliation?

The History of Reconciliation Early Christian Church had only two Sacraments Baptism & Eucharist Anyone found guilty of a most grievous sin was excommunicated. Evidence was found in Scripture that Jesus had forgiven people for these very sins. Focus was on a journey back to God through public penance.

The History of Reconciliation 6 th century – Irish monks introduced private confessions 7 th century – Tariff system. Sins could be ‘paid off’. Sins had a value depending on the seriousness Council of Trent – Private confession was the norm Vatican II – focus moved to forgiveness

Reconciliation Today New Rite Focus on forgiveness We are reconciled with God We are reconciled with the community

3 Rites of Reconciliation 1 st Rite 2 nd Rite 3 rd Rite Individual Confession Gather as community & Individual Confession Gather as community & general Confession & Absolution

Steps in the liturgy 2 nd Rite of Reconciliation Gather & introductory prayer Listen to readings Homily Examination of Conscience Go to priest and tell him sins and say sorry Absolution: Priest blesses & gives forgiveness Rejoin community/ community celebrates in prayer and song Person intends to make up for their sins Admit Say sorry Be forgiven Reconcile

What is sin? Not a good choice Deliberate, not accidental Affects others in a negative way When we place ourselves at the centre Me God The world Others

Act of Contrition Loving God, I am sorry for the wrong I have done. I know that you love me. Help me to grow to be more like Jesus and try not to sin again. Amen.
