March 9 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

The Rite of Election and Call to Continuing Conversion will be celebrated by Bishop McDermott on the First Sunday at Lent at the Cathedral of Saint Joseph in Burlington. During this rite, the Church “elects” those seeking full initiation into the Church through Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist at Easter. The Church also recognizes those already-baptized Christians seeking full initiation into the Catholic Church and pledges the support of prayer as they journey toward Full Communion in the Catholic Church.
Friends and family of those participating in the Rite of Election and Call to Continuing Conversion and all the faithful from around the diocese are invited to celebrate with us.
A reception follows the liturgy for all who attend.
