“The essential act of penance, on the part of the penitent, is contrition, a clear and decisive rejection of the sin committed, together with a resolution not to commit it again, out of love which one has for God and which is reborn with repentance…” (Pope St. John Paul II)
The Optional Memorial of St. John Paul II (1920 – 2005) is October 22.
