About

This is a major step in the faith journey of catechumens and baptised candidates from all over the Archdiocese who wish full communion with the Church.  In this Rite, which usually occurs on the First Sunday of Lent, the Church makes it’s “election” or to put it another way, it chooses the catechumens who, up to this point, have spent much time in formation to move on to the sacraments of initiation at Easter.  Here in the Cathedral parish we pray for the catechumens who have been on the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) journey and are now looking towards full communion with the church at Easter.
