No church can forgive sin. No vicar, priest or whoever can forgive sin unless that sin was committed against that person. When one sins against God then only He can forgive.

What is the sacrament for forgiveness?

I am assuming you're refering to the Roman Catholic sacrament of forgiveness. The usual Biblical reference given is that of Matthew 17:18 - "I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." - and John 20:22 - "If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven." This shows that the disciples had Jesus' authority to forgive sins. The RC church believes it has the authority, passed down from the first bishop (St Peter) by laying on of hands, down to the current generation of Priests, to forgive sins in Jesus' name. Note that this is not them themselves having the power, but the power is given from Jesus.
