Rite of Election

Yesterday  was the Rite of Election at St. Cecilia's Cathedral. Each year, during the ceremony, catechumens (who are entering the Catholic Church through baptism) and their sponsors get the chance to meet Archbishop George Lucas, as do the candidates (who join the Catholic Church from other Christian denominations) and their sponsors.
 

 It's fun to meet the Archbishop!

Rite of Election

Sunday was the Rite of Election at St. Cecilia Cathedral. It is a time where Archbishop Lucas gets to meet those who are preparing to enter the Church at the Easter Vigil and their sponsors.

At our parish, 28 people plan to join the Church at our Easter Vigil. Of those, 12 children and three adults will be baptized/

Below is a picture of the three adults to be 

baptized signing the Book of the Elect.

Please keep in prayer all of those who are preparing to enter the Church this year.

The Rite of Election

Last Sunday was the Rite of Election for the Omaha Archdiocese. Twice in the day the Cathedral is filled with all of those who will be entering the Church this year. Archbishop George Lucas greets each of them as they go through the final stages preparing to enter the Church at the Easter Vigil.

Here we have pictures of some of our Candidates meeting the Archbishop:
