The Rite of Election , the second major rite in the RCIA, marks the catechumens’ final stage of preparation for full communion with Christ and His Church. At this celebration, the Bishop, as the Church’s representative, formally “elects” those ready to receive the sacraments of initiation. Catechumens also inscribe their names in the Book of the Elect  as a sign of their commitment and fidelity (RCIA 106).

This year’s theme is “The compassion of the Samaritan: loving by bearing another’s pain”. In his message, the Holy Father offers us the following prayer: Sweet Mother, do not part from me. Turn not your eyes away from me. Walk with me at every moment and never leave me alone. You who always protect me as a true Mother, obtain for me the blessing of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
