Message for Soon-To-Be and All Catholics
“We Need to Encounter the Person of Jesus Christ in our Life” – Bishop Gregory Parkes
This homily is from the Rite of Election at the Cathedral of St. Jude the Apostle in St. Petersburg on February 26, 2023.
The Rite of Election is celebrated on the first Sunday of Lent. Those preparing for the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First Eucharist share their desire to join the Catholic Church and the bishop welcomes and acknowledges their readiness.
