Reminders
Keeping the rhythm
Choose the interval you actually want to keep and iConfess counts from your last confession, not from a calendar month. One quiet note when you are due: never a streak to protect, never shared with anyone.
Your interval
Traditional Prayers
When the words are fixed
The Act of Contrition and the other fixed prayers of the Church, exactly as they are said, in type large enough to read in a dim church.
The Act of Contrition
Prayer Inspiration
When words won’t come
Say plainly what is on your heart and receive a prayer shaped around it: something to start from when you cannot begin, not a substitute for your own words.
What you give it, and what comes back example
“I keep losing my temper with my son.”→ a prayer for patience
“Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”2 Peter 3 : 18
