Listen Later

"

Should one intentionally hold back confessing a serious sin just because one is embarrassed?

No. We will read about a young man who was so ashamed of a sin against the sixth commandment that he tried to go to confession without confessing it. St Philip, with his gift of reading souls, recognized what he was doing. He told him that far from being forgiven he was actually committing more sins. But would the young man listen?

Last episode we read about the election of Pope Gregory XIII on May 13. May 13 is the same day that Fr Robinson was ordained a priest. Fr Robinson is the Founder of the Toronto Oratory, the one who introduced St Philip's way of life to Canada. Pope Gregory XIII is the Pope who approved the Oratorian Constitutions.
