Father Corapi on EWTN told the story one time that it always amazed him the few number of people in the Confession lines on Saturdays vs. the massive number of people who received Holy Communion on Sundays....He said something to the effect...they must think they were “immaculately conceived!” LOL

Or what our very Irish rector told me when I was heading for my First Confession (at the age of 48!) and asked if I should schedule a time ("this is going to be the Mother of All Confessions") --

"Och, no, just come at the regular time, do. There aren't very many sinners in this parish!"
