Frequent confession

Frequent confession is a spiritual practice of going to the sacrament of penance often and regularly in order to grow in holiness.

This practice "was introduced into the Church by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit," according to Pius XII. Confession of everyday faults is "strongly recommended by the Church." (CCC 1458) Paul VI said that frequent confession is "of great value."

John Paul II, who went to confession weekly, enumerated these advantages:

  • we are renewed in fervor
  • strengthened in our resolutions
  • and supported by divine encouragement
