Sacrament of Reconciliation (Penance)

The Catechism of the Catholic Church provides a perfect summary of penance and its connection to sin:

Many sins wrong our neighbor. One must do what is possible to repair the harm (e.g., return stolen goods, restore the reputation of someone slandered, pay compensation for injuries). Simple justice requires as much. But sin also injures and weakens the sinner himself, as well as his relationships with God and neighbor. Absolution takes away sin, but it does not remedy all the disorders sin has caused. Raised up from sin, the sinner must still recover his full spiritual health by doing something more to make amends for the sin: he must “make satisfaction for” or “expiate” his sins. This satisfaction is also called “penance.”  ~CCC 1459
