This morning the Rite of Acceptance and Welcoming was celebrated at St. Matthew’s Cathedral during the eleven-thirty Mass.
It was a time of anxiety, faith, hope, and love. It was a time of activity.
The catechumens and candidates accompanied by their sponsors were greeted by Monsignor Jameson near the main doors of the Cathedral.
As a sponsor all types of thoughts flooded my mind. Several silent prayers shot through my mind.
Standing there, this morning I remembered how the Church asks us to be involved, to be open to all types of requests.
Being Catholic means more than just going to Mass once a week. It means offering your time to help the Church. It means volunteering.
