Valley churches offer drive-thru confessionals while closed during COVID-19 spread
This article presents the situation of how the Catholic Churches here in Arizona are dealing with the virus spread by holding confessions in thier parking lots and having people drive up to the priest in their vehicles in order to practice the Sacrament of Reconciliation and be forgiven of their sins. There are many other churches throughout the country doing this as the priest that was interviewed said he got the idea from a viral post that was taken in Kansas and wanted to do the same for his congregation. Of course they practiced Social DIstancing as they would be six feet apart and the priest when they would give the Prayer of Absolution would just raise his hand and not touch the individual at all.
