On Sunday the 6th of March, the Rite of Election of Catechumens and Call to Continuing Conversion of Candidates was held at the Cathedral at Sale.

A congregation of approximately 120 people attended which included Catechumens, Candidates, Godparents, sponsors and families.

Catechumens and Candidates were presented to Bishop Greg Bennet as they prepare for full reception into the Catholic Church.

This is a special milestone on the journey to become a Catholic.

This Easter 19 catechumens will receive the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist and 12 baptised candidates will be admitted into
full reception of the Catholic Church in their respective parishes.
