Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) Germany has prepared a “mobile confessional” in an effort to re-awaken enthusiasm for the sacrament of reconciliation among the faithful of Central Europe.
The van will be presented, blessed and sent out during the charity’s international congress, called “Meeting point Universal Church”, March 5-7, in Augsburg, Bavaria.
ACN’s “confessional on wheels” will also be used during World Youth Day 2005 in Cologne. It is meant to serve as a way to bring people closer to God by offering them the sacrament of reconciliation, an opportunity to speak to a priest or spiritual counselling wherever it stops on its road trip throughout the country.
