Confession on the retreat: Pastors from the district tell their stories. Before Easter, Catholics should ease their conscience.
Today, this is part of Easter for fewer and fewer people. Only a priest can absolve believers of their sins. “The soul must become pure – the magic word is confession,” says Father Paul Kruczek from Taufkirchen. ‘There is forgiveness on earth through our Lord God – he doesn’t need me as an intermediary,’ says Father Stephan Matula.
