One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by beloved author Rev. Lawrence G. Lovasik, S.V.D. introduces Catholic children to and prepares them for the Sacrament of Penance. The Sacrament of Confession, or Reconciliation, holds special importance for children, helping them grow in their relationship with God and their understanding of forgiveness. Confession is an opportunity to experience God's mercy firsthand, teaching children that no matter what mistakes they make, God is always ready to forgive them when they're truly sorry. This sacrament fosters a sense of accountability by allowing them to reflect on their actions, recognize their faults, and take responsibility, which is foundational to developing moral awareness.
Through regular Confession, children learn the value of humility and honesty as they openly discuss their missteps. This sacrament also provides a unique chance to experience spiritual healing and peace, removing any feelings of guilt that may weigh on their hearts. This freedom from guilt encourages them to strive toward positive behavior and instills a desire to grow in virtue.
Moreover, Confession strengthens their relationship with God and the Church, showing them they are part of a community that values compassion, redemption, and grace. It helps them internalize the importance of forgiving others, just as they are forgiven, which nurtures empathy and understanding. For children, engaging in Confession lays a spiritual foundation, encouraging them to develop a conscience rooted in faith, love, and mercy--a foundation that can guide them throughout their lives.
Specific topics covered in this title include:

  • The Sacrament of Confession
  • What You Must Do to Prepare for Confession
  • Examination of Conscience
  • Finding Out Your Sins
