How do I continue my Roman Catholic rituals if I haven't attended in years?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe first thing to do is call the local parish and schedule an appointment with the priest. You need to sit down with a priest and discuss what has happened, you also need to start with confession. I would not recommend going to Holy Communion, although you should start attending Mass right away, but don't receive Holy Communion until you have talked with the priest, and made a good Confession. If it has been "years" since your last confession, it is going to take you some time to get it together. Ask Father if he can recommend a book or something that you could go over to put your first confession together. Take your time, this is the most important thing that you have done in your life so far, you want to get it right. You are in my prayers.

How does the Anglican church members go to confession?
On the whole, unless an Anglican is of the Catholic tradition in the Anglican Church (ie, they are catholic to all intents and purposes except they reject the authority of the pope), then Anglicans do not go to confession. That does not mean that they do not confess their sins! At almost every Anglican service there is an act of confession and absolution, and Anglicans take sin just as seriously as Catholics. However, the vast majority of Anglicans do not see the need to confess to a priest as an intermediary, but confess directly to God, as per the early Church practices and reject entirely the Catholic tradition of 'having' to go to confession on, say, a weekly basis. Instead they confess their sins when they need to, directly to God, whether as part of a service or not.
