Contemporary Rites put forward three forms of celebration of the sacrament of penance and reconciliation. The intention of Rites of penance in a renewed form was to demonstrate the nature and effect of the sacrament of penance more clearly and to show their social dimension. This is best expressed by the second way of celebration – the rite of reconciliation of many penitents with individual confession and absolution. It helps to understand better a social dimension of sin and forgiveness. In comparison to the first form – the rite of reconciliation of one penitent with individual confession and absolution – we can see how the same elements of penance which are expressed in analogues signs stress a social character of the sacrament. A communal form of the sacrament of penance seem to be underestimated and it is hard to speak about it common usage. Against a background of this reluctance and sometimes of some arbitrariness in the practice of communal penitential celebration we must stress the necessity of sacramental catechesis. Youth retreats are the opportunity to change this situation as during them this form of celebration is often applied. The Penitential Rites include nine models of penitential services and demonstrate their benefit and significance in their theological and pastoral aspects. One can observe a distinct analogy with the penitential rite for many penitents with individual confession and absolution although they are different in their nature. Youth retreats give opportunity to revive the practice of those services. It this case it is necessary to prepare the celebration well. It is particularly important to adapt the content (subjects) and form to recipients and, if possible, to involve the young in the co-creation of the celebration.
