Comment from Understand the Times:
 
The following article is the pope's answer to the modernization of the Roman Catholic Church. As well, it will be a piece of cake to set up an application for donations for indulgences that will give sinners a free ticket to heaven.
 
March 14 - Android App and Kit Urge Return to Confession

Article: Roman Catholic Church And The Last Days
  

For those who have been away from the sacrament of reconciliation for a long time, but are unsure what to do in order to return, the Penance Project is part of the answer. At the Penance Project Web site, an android app and a penance kit are available for free, full of clear, simple answers and step-by-step guidance for going to confession. 

ZENIT: We can almost begin to speak of a "craze" for promoting confession through technology. What is the benefit of this new fashion in evangelization? 

Morrow: We are part of exciting times in terms of new media and new methods of evangelizing and educating people. Technology, and the ease of access to information through it, has grown quickly and is becoming more widespread each day. I imagine that times were just as exciting, if not more so, when books were becoming widely available through the technology of the printing press. In my mind the benefits of these new methods mirror closely the benefits of the "old." 

ZENIT: Does your zeal for promoting the sacrament of reconciliation come from a personal experience? 

Morrow: Very much so. I was brought into the Church on the Easter Vigil in 1995. Once I correctly understood the sacraments, specifically Eucharist and reconciliation, the zeal was ignited. So much of my ongoing conversion is supported and strengthened by the grace provided by the sacrament of penance. That grace is needed by so many to receive the Eucharist. It is extremely hard to humble yourself before another, confess your sins, and ask God's forgiveness, but once that forgiveness is received, the hardship of the process is well worth it. 

ZENIT: The video testimony at your Web site answers the question "why I am Catholic" in seven minutes. Does the Penance Project have an apologetic aim as well? 

Morrow: I would not say that apologetics is a primary focus, but it is an aspect that can not be left out of our evangelization efforts. There are a lot of misunderstandings and misconceptions about the sacrament of reconciliation. Before my conversion I was told things that where completely false. We would like to make researching the true teachings of the Church about reconciliation as easy as we can -- be it through a Web page, a mobile device, social media, a laminated information packet, or any other media through which we can effectively communicate.
