The funny thing is that one of them will sometimes mention in the course of a homily that people should go to Confession. But how are they supposed to do that?

There’s no way our priest could hear all the confessions of the parish, if more any than a slim % actually DID go to confession, at least in the time alotted. But it sounds as as if our priest is more “gung ho” about confession than your priest(s?).

Repentance is one of the themes of Lent.

Our priest mentions it probably every two weeks — and during Lent, very week.

Guess we are pretty lucky.
