text: There is no false information here.  This was true of Pre-Vatican II religious communities in the US. 
  
  In many religious communities---the Provincial or Vicar sat in the back of the chapel and saw every one going to Confession.  And those in novitiate HAD to go every week for "the grace of the sacrament".  Unless you deal with as many religious communities as I do [well over 250], you had better check on your statistics before making your claims.  
  
  Religious women out on parishes had chapels and the priests [religious] came in to the little confessional in the chapel ONCE a WEEK---and all the religious there went to Confession.
