The ABC's of  Orthodoxy
HOLY CONFESSION OR (PENANCE)

Confession is a Sacrament. Confession before Communion is necessary to cleanse ones soul of sins and receive forgiveness.

The Priest is the person to whom the penitent (sinner) will confess his sinful condition for it is the Priest that Christ has given special power to forgive sin. The Priest preserves absolutely the seal of confidence from a penitent.
