2. **Organize into numbered sections.** Each distinct sin or struggle gets its own `##` heading. Group related items together if they're clearly the same category.
3. **Capture the common thread.** If Connor identifies a pattern across his sins (e.g., "discouragement," "taking the easy path"), include a "Common thread" section summarizing it. If he doesn't identify one, omit this section.
3. **Start each item with a bold summary statement.** Open each sin item with a concise, bold sentence that clearly states what is being confessed (e.g., "**Been lax in fasting.**", "**Been exasperated with my wife.**"). This makes it easy to glance at the note in the confessional and remember each item. Follow the bold statement with the supporting detail.
4. **Preserve the script.** The opening ("Bless me Father for I have sinned...") and closing ("This is all I can remember...") are standard script elements. If Connor includes them, keep them formatted as shown in the template. If he doesn't, add them with placeholders for the timeframe.
