Examination of Conscience!

What is an examination of conscience?
Its when you confess your sins to the parish priest during the Sacrament of Reconciliation, or it is contrition which means a deep regret or feeling guilty for making a wrong decision.

Why would it be helpful?
It is helpful because it makes you recognise your sins and ask the priest to be forgiven. The priest can give you advice for the guilt that you’ve created.

When would the church invite people to do this?
It happens during the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Which is held in May 27 to June 3.

A person was caught stealing something small which was made into a pattern and which resulted for the person to become a thief. If he had examined his conscience earlier, he would have prevented the theft and not get caught.

Walht: Recognise the importance of using one’s conscience.

Guy Fawkes Day (Origin)


Screenshot 2016-11-08 at 1.45.09 PM.pngGuy Fawkes day known as Bonfire and Firework night, is an annual event celebrated every 5th of November to remember the fail assassination of the king of England around that time. The history of the event started in November 5 when a member of the Gunpowder plot named Guy Fawkes was arrested, trying to guard the explosives that plotters had placed beneath the House of Lords. Inside the House of Lords was King James 1, which had survived during the failed assassination of the King. People lit bonfires and celebrated the failed attempt on killing the King. Months after the event, the Observance of 5th November act enforced an annual public day to thank the plot’s failure.

If I was confirmed I would choose saint  Joseph.


Saint Joseph was a young carpenter chosen by God to be Mary’s husband. He had done lots of good deeds in his time and he took good care of Jesus when his son was just a young child. Joseph has believed in God and never stopped believing in God. Joseph always fulfilled his promise on raising a wonderful child.
