I wasn't aware of there being different versions of the Act of Contrition. Does saying a different one than the standard count in Confession?

You can say pretty much anything as the Act of Contrition. I’ve heard several variations but the basic is “God I love you and I am sorry.”

@Emma ah ok. Like, ik you don't have to say the Act of Contrition to tell God you're sorry, but I thought you had to say it in Confession 🤷♀️Btw I mean the regular (or slight variation of), "O my God, I am hardily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because I fear the loss of heaven, and the pains of hell. But most of all, because they offend Thee, my God, who art all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen."
(While I was remembering the words so type it out, it just hit me how beautiful of a prayer the Act of Contrition is)
