Beautiful church!

but since my top two sins are sloth and gluttony, well ...

LOL.

In my area the push is face to face only, grudgingly letting the those who want anonymity have a screen.

Fast forward to our current Sunday parish, St. John Cantius, in Chicago, where confession is highly promoted by the Canons Regular (before, during, and after all Sunday masses),

Wow, what a blessing and an example for other dioceses. I'm not surprised then that they were so accommodating to you.

Wow! That's awesome. What state/country are you from? Face-to-face is Divine for those with disabilities. Not only hearing loss, but those with wheelchairs, claustrophobia, bad knees, and so on. Folks with disabilities are not always the ones who speak up the loudest, so I was hinting to my husband that I should start a movement of sorts through our town's church (not St. John Cantius) for more frequent face-to-face (they only offer it a couple times a year) ... but the sloth thing got in the way, and, for the time being anyway, we drive to Chicago instead :):) ...
