Learn
We are devoted to learning more about the Sacrament of Confession so we can share with others the beauty and gift God has in store for us through this sacrament.
Jonah, the prophet we can imitate.
Jonah is a witness of the ability of God to use us for His purpose even though we are imperfect creatures. The Jonah Plan Apostolate uses him as a model of what we can become with God's grace.
Will you became another Jonah?

“The potential for an authentic and vibrant renewal of the whole Catholic Church through the more faithful use of the Sacrament of Penance is immeasurable.”
St. John Paul II
