I cannot think of a better time to have confesion than right before sunday mass." Well, it's fairly common here in New York. However, in parishes with only one priest, it's rather inconvenient for the priest and those organizing the ceremonies. It's worth it, but it's certainly easier if people can go to confession at some time other than Sunday morning. Also, frequently people don't get their confessions heard, because confessions have to stop for Mass to begin (again, when you have only one priest, which is more and more common). “I have never seen that in a NO church once.

I don't understand why some parishes offer the sacrament 10-20 times per week, amd others just one hour a week. Why did we stop having confession on sunday mornings before/during mass?
