Main Points:

 

  • Jesus loves and cares for us as the good shepherd cares for his sheep.

  • Jesus seeks us out when we stray and we can return through the Sacrament of Reconciliation. 

  • We express our sorrow for having sinned in the Act of Contrition.

  • Penance is a prayer or good action that shows we will do better, to make up for what we’ve done.

  • Contrition means “true sorrow for sin and a desire to avoid sin in the future.
