When is Forgiveness Day? We celebrate holiday on June 26

The world is a better place for the existence of this day. Forgiveness Day is today. On this June 26 holiday, we seek to forgive and to be forgiven. Absolution or atonement is deeply rooted in most religions. While humans strive to be good and do good, we find it difficult to do all of the time. But try as we might, humans are far from perfect. Without forgiveness people hold a grudge, relationships fail, and the world sees war and strife. Through giving and receiving forgiveness, the world and our lives are a better place.

Religions Stress Forgiveness

** In Christian religions, the first Sunday before Lent is called Forgiveness Sunday.
