We ask our St. Jerome parish community to keep the RCIA Elect in prayer, as they enter into this special spiritual time. From this point forward, the catechumens are now called the “elect”. The elect are as follows: Patricia Esparza, Raymond Gregory, Sue Hayes and Dale Hubbart together with the candidates Deanna Gregory, Jenna Johnson, Elizabeth Kasper, Johnathan Malish, Gabriela Rios and Nicole Román are thereby moved by the Rite into a period of intense spiritual preparation. They will be accepted in full communion with the church during the Easter Vigil Mass.
