Roman Catholic AnswerIf you are talking about the sacrament of Penance, then it is necessary to have a baptised Catholic who is of age confessing ALL of his unforgiven mortal sins to a validly consecrated priest or Bishop, to be truly sorry for his sins, and to have a firm intention of not committing them again. The priest must then absolve the penitent and impose a penance on him, which must be fulfilled.
