Rite of Acceptance is this weekend

The Rite of Acceptance will take place on November 22nd at the 10:30 Mass.

This signifies the end of the period of inquiry, also known as the precatechumenate. For the first time, those in the RCIA will gather as a group and celebrate the Liturgy of the Word with the parish community. They and their sponsors will answer questions concerning their readiness to continue moving forward with their studies, all with the hope that they will be one with us at the Easter Vigil.

We ask your prayers for them in the days and weeks ahead.

*I (Ashley!) went through the Rite of Christian Adult Initiation last year, and I cannot tell you what it meant to me to know that the whole church was praying for us. I was overwhelmed by the time and effort the Church put into my journey- it was a huge commitment for my sponsor, but she made it seem like nothing but joy to her. It was a wonderful path to walk.
