Confession in the Eucharistic Liturgy

Confession in the Eucharistic Liturgy
Before receiving the Holy Communion we admit that through the Lord Jesus Christ's Body and Blood we are given the forgiveness of sin and we gain eternal life.
We pray the "Confession" in reverence and fear, as a preparation to receive Holy Communion.
