Today we celebrated the rite of election & the call to continuing conversion for our English-speaking catechumens and candidates at St. Giles Church. In your kindness please embrace these beautiful people in your prayers.
“My beloved chosen in Christ, I now declare you to be members of the elect. By God’s grace, you are to be initiated into the sacred mysteries at the next Easter”.
“My brothers and sisters in Christ, the Church recognizes your desire to be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit and to have place at Christ’s Eucharistic table. Join with us this Lent in a spirit of repentance. Hear the Lord’s call to conversion and be faithful to your baptismal covenant”.
