The sacrament of Reconciliation.
reconciliation.jpg|Caption1 http://www.godfrey.info/Deaneryintouch/reconciliation.jpg The sacrament of Reconciliation is mostly just confessing the sins you have committed throughout the past years that you have lived, only that it's your first time. Another way to say the confession of sins is Penance. There are 2 ways, that I know of, you can do it; in public or in privacy. When you confess your sins, you confess them to the Priest, him and God forgive you of your and done. Simple... right? Well, not really. First, you have to prepare yourself. Here are some tips that I made up myself that may help you prepare yourself for Reconciliation, or Penance: Put yourself in a state of God, and think of all the sins that you may have committed in the passed years, and keep them in your mind, then when it's time to confess, just let it all out. There. Now it's easy.

So, in recap, Reconciliation is just another word to say first Penance, to perform it, just think peacefully and of your sins, and when you meet the priest, don't freak out.
