From Trinidad-
AN Anglican minister has lamented the lack of interest in confessions among the church's faithful.
Canon Ronald Branche said while confessions are a vital component of
the Lenten experience, many people continue to shy away from it for fear
of confessing their sins to a priest, whom they perceive as an ordinary
man.
"Some people say, 'I eh confessing to no man,' but the priest is not there to judge you," Branche said on Sunday.
He was addressing the Anglican Church's Gathering of Pilgrims 2019 at Signal Hill Secondary School, Tobago.
The event, which had as one of its themes, True Worship: The Essence
of Reconciliation: A Realignment of Self, brought together Anglicans
from parishes throughout TT.
