Hello ther, biggirl! The abortion has been going down steadily over the last decade or more. The number aborted annually is now at the lowest rate since 1974. I don’t understand anyone talking about more people (let alone “more Catholics”) aborting babies. That lacks factual foundation.
Hi Mrs. Don-o!
Today posting after a very busy weekend which just has past. Went to the cathedral for the very first time with a canidate, a baptised Catholic whom I am sponsoring and two other baptised Catholics who will be receving first holy communion and later in the Easter season by coming back to the same cathedral to be confirmed.
It was there I had witnessed for the first time, people who will be baptised this Easter eve coming up, signed their names, thus becoming the elect with their sponsors.
RCIA, I have learned over the months I have been on the parish team, is a reminder to those of us who are “cradle Catholics” to not take our faith as Catholics for granted. Lent is a very important reminder of that. When one thinks of it, it is begining anew for all in the Church this Lent.
Plus for the new Archbishop, it is his first presiding over this special ceremony. Up to 260 people will be coming into the Church this Easter.
