I just wanted to thank you for your article "Confessions of a Catholic Convert." I am in the middle of my RCIA program as a converting Methodist and have been thinking a great deal of Reconciliation. I am so scared and embarrassed at the thought of talking confession for the first time in my life that I honestly don't know how I am going to do it. Nevertheless, the words in your article really has helped me visualize the goal and hopefully suppress my fears of exposure of the number of my sins of the 43 years of my life.

I will definitely relay your touching story to my RCIA class when we discuss this Sacrament. I am sure it will help my classmates as much as it did me.
