MATER MISERICORDIAE CATHOLIC PARISH Examination of Conscience Ask the Holy Spirit for light. Reflect prayerfully: - Have I put God first — prayer, Mass, Sunday obligation? - Have I spoken truthfully and charitably? - Have I respected parents, family, and authority? - Have I respected the dignity of others in thought, word, and deed? - Have I been honest with time, money, and responsibilities? - Have I forgiven those who hurt me? Bring mortal sins in kind and number to Confession; also mention habitual venial sins you wish to overcome.
