LOKALNA POLSKA MISJA KATOLICKA SOUTHAMPTON I BOURNEMOUTH

Czasami zdarza się,że nie uda nam sie pójść do spowiedzi (po polsku)-ratunkiem w takiej sytuacji, może być spowiedź w języku angielskim. Zamieszczone poniżej przygotowanie do spowiedzi ( rachunek sumienia) pomoże wam w przejściu tego, trudnego (dla niektórych) doświadczenia tz. spowiedź i to jeszcze w obcym języku. Nie tłumaczyliśmy tego z bardzo prostej przyczyny- ułatwi nam to wyznanie grzechów w obcym języku. Jeśli jednak uważacie, że tłumaczenie przydało by się proszę o kontakt. Napewno dostosujemy się do Waszych sugestii.
