============================================================

The Sacrament
of Reconciliation has its lighter moments too.  One day I was celebrating the
sacrament with young grade school children in Our Lady of Visitation Church in
Nairobi, Kenya.  A little boy was hesitating to begin his confession when I
heard some whispering in the confessional.  I asked the boy:  "Is there anyone
in there with you?"  "Oh yes, Father," came the quick reply.  "This is only my
second time so I asked my older sister to help me."
