Title
Pandemic and the Right to the Sacraments
Description
While individual confession is the ordinary way of celebrating the sacrament of Penance (can. 960), general absolution can be imparted under certain circumstance. The first scenario is when there is an imminent danger of death, and there is insufficient time for the priest or priests to hear the confessions of the individual penitents.
