Adoration & Confession

This evening St Wilfrid's Church will be open from 6.30pm until 8.00pm. The Blessed Sacrament will be exposed throughout this time, and Benediction will be given at 8. Father Colin and visiting priests will be available to welcome you and to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation with you.

I got the idea for doing this, rather than a Reconciliation Service, this Lent after hearing of an initiative from the Diocese of Lancaster called 'The Light is On For You.' The Bishop of Lancaster has asked that all the Churches in his diocese should be open on Wednesday evenings during Lent. and the priest available for confessions. It is well worth visiting the above link for resources to help us think about the Sacrament of Reconciliation more deeply, and the video below may help our reflection, too.

We are doing it just for one Wednesday. Let's make it a special occasion of adoration and reconciliation.
