The delegation from St. John the Baptist Parish in Kalihi take to their assigned pew at the Rite of Election, Feb. 26, at the Co-Cathedral of St. Theresa in Honolulu. More than 200 catechumens, or elect, signed Books of the Elect in Rites of Election across the diocese over the last weekend in February. All will be baptized at their parish’s Easter Vigil liturgies April 8. Below, a young catechumen signs her name in the Book of the Elect. (Photos courtesy of Dann Ebina )
