One of the things about the Easter season is that it invites us to go to confession, something that many people put off for a number of reasons.
As with so many things in life, the longer you leave it, the harder it is to get back into. After all, if you've not been for a number of years you might be thinking that you'll exhaust the priest with all your confessing, and maybe even feel a bit embarrassed.
However, to reassure you, and to encourage you to turn to your priest and seek out confession -- especially before Easter -- Fr. David Michael Moses has shared a rather energetic video of why years of absence should not deter you!

As Fr. David Michael points out: "The longer it’s been, the happier I am you’re coming back!"
In his post he also emphasizes his role as a confessor that should hopefully reassure those who are reluctant to take part in the sacrament:
I’m not a priest because I want to judge you. I’m a priest because I want you to know God’s mercy, come back to the Catholic Church, and receive the peace that only comes from an encounter with Jesus Christ."
And as the break-dancing priest also shares, "Holy Week is a great time to come back! Make this your best Easter ever."
