Fr. Anthony Amato is the Pastor of St. Peter’s Parish in Clifton Springs, New York. He was ordained as a priest in June of 2017 by Bishop Salvatore Matano of the Diocese of Rochester, New York. In Today's Show I've received some flack because I kneel immediately after the rite of peace. Is that okay that I do that? I disrespected my father over the phone. My penance in confession was to have lunch with him and reconcile. My Father refused. Is my confession valid? Does it matter how we hold our hands when we pray? palms together or fingers intertwined? How can I learn more about praying for the poor souls in purgatory? When exactly did Jesus make the sacrifice of the Mass a sacrifice in the Bible or tradition? Recently there was miscommunication in the confessional, and the penitent wasn’t done listing their sins. Was the confession valid? Is there a specific secret formula for issuing penances in the confessional? I'm in RCIA. I guess my question what happens to the marriage bond in heaven? will I know my wife? Father, which traditional Monasteries and Abbeys do you recommend visiting? There is this wonderful person who wears too much perfume in church. I have allergies and sometimes it is so hard to breathe. What can be done about this?
