Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults : In his Lenten address, Pope Benedict speaks of Lent as ‘ a journey
accompanying Jesus as he travels to Jerusalem, the place where the mystery of his Passion, Death and
Resurrection is to be fulfilled.’ It reminds us, he says, that ‘ the Christian life is a road to be travelled
consisting not so much in a law to be observed as in the person of Christ himself who must be encountered,
welcomed and followed. On this Lenten journey, let us be attentive to welcoming Christ’s invitation to follow
him more decisively and coherently, renewing the grace and commitments of our Baptism, so as to abandon
the old nature which is in us, and clothe ourselves in Christ.’
As Lent marks our journey towards Easter, so it marks the final period of preparation for those seeking to be
received into full communion with the Church. On Sunday afternoon in the Cathedral, the Archbishop will
greet all those preparing to receive the sacraments at Easter in the Rite of Election. This includes Andrew
Wilkinson who will be received into the Church here during the Easter Vigil. During Mass on Sunday
morning, we will recognise the journey he himself has made and formally ‘send’ him to be welcomed by the
Archbishop. Please keep Andrew, his wife Elaine and their family in your prayers at this time.
