Missed Mass

Missed Mass
Question from Deb on 5/12/2008:

Dear Fr. Echert,

Yesterday I didn't set my alarm clock and missed Mass. We don't have an afternoon Mass and neither does the churches in the towns next to ours. Do I need to go to confession before receiving Holy Communion? Our priest only hears confession once sometimes twice a month and this last saturday was the day he heard them.

Thank You and God Bless You, Deb
Answer by Fr. John Echert on 5/13/2008:

No, since it was not intentional. But the next convenient time you can go to Confession, mention this to the priest, in case there was some culpability.

Thanks, Deb

Father Echert
