Raising Saints - 008 The Purpose of Sacraments & Dealing with a Frustrating Person

Father Connolly brought a question from the 3rd grade class at St. Columba school. A student asked: What is the point of the sacraments? As we answer this question we also address a question from a parent, Kristy, who wonders why we go to Confession rather than just asking Jesus to forgive us privately. And then Will in 4th grade asks us to tackle a difficult issue - how to show compassion to a frustrating classmate!

Please forgive the background noise and the 3 year old yelling for mommy in this episode! (#CatholicMomLife)
