What Would Willy Wonka Do?
I just got this in a pre-Christmas confession...
"Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It's been ____ since my last confection."
Father, sounds more like a Lenten confession to me... ^_^
ReplyDeleteMaybe in the spirit of preparation, they gave up sweets for Advent and were confessing a slip?
ReplyDeleteObviously your penitent was a priest who wished to enumerate his sins since the last time he "confected" the Eucharist!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Father.
Are you allowed to tell us that?
ReplyDelete(That's a serious question - I don't know what the seal of the confessional covers.)
Still funny!
