"The two facts of healing in the physical order are these:
A physician cannot heal us unless we put ourselves into his hands,
and we will not put ourselves into his hands unless we know that we are sick. In like manner,
a sinner’s awareness of sin is one requisite for his recovery; the other is his longing for God.
When we long for God, we do so not come as sinners, but as lovers.”
(Ven. Fulton Sheen)

Current Schedule for the Sacrament of Reconciliation
Mondays and Fridays during Advisory We have the great gift of having the Sacrament of Reconciliation readily available to us at PND. We encourage all to avail themselves in this sacrament in which the Divine Physician desires to heal and restore us, in which our loving Father 'watches out the window' awaiting our return.

Along with regular weekly Confession, we also, as a school, visit this Sacrament during the seasons of Advent and Lent.
