Confession Makes a Comeback

A very nice story in the New York Times on confessions at St. John the Evangelist in Stamford, Connecticut, which which also be hosting a training session on the sung extraordinary form in April. This is probably the fourth piece I've read recently in the Times that was informative and respectful, while of course getting some details wrong. Oh, and of course they must always quote Fr. Richard P. McBrien who gladly and predictably plays the role of the village atheist. Someone should do a random quote generator based on what he tells the press.

In any case, a good story.
