A lot of preparation went into it for him:
- Reviewing the 10 commandments... explaining adultery was an interesting conversation.
- Polishing the halo as per our discussion he could rarely think of how he broke a commandment.
- Finding the quickest way to come up with 3 -5 sins to confess...he said 3
- Remembering what to say to the Priest
- Learning the Act of Contrition...which apparently has been rewritten, who knew? (well probably people who go to confession regularly knew)
- A little big of nerves
After learning a song, hearing a gospel and a homily, and getting the logistics of the night under our belt we settled in for the long weight until the moment of truth. He confidently march up to his face to face set-up and sat on the edge of the chair looking so innocent and sweet. I leaned over to Meredith to tell her to get a pic (I left my camera at home...I was a single mom that night thanks to college) and in that short moment he was back on his feet walking proudly to the gathering space grinning the famous Logan grin. Mission Accomplished. He felt good about it. He has also informed me that confession is every Thursday and Saturday and we can go as often as we want...Good to know!
Steve was sad to miss it.
