If you have, then the RCIA process is for you! The RCIA process is a flexible and multi-step process that meets people where they are and guides them in discerning whether or not God is leading them into full initiation into the Catholic church. We begin sessions on September 19 in Lower Brendan House. Come and see!

Primary education in Malawi is 8 years, referred to as Standard 1 through 8. Although the official primary school age in Malawi is 6 to 13, it is very common for students of varying ages to attend Primary School as many students have to repeat their primary years. School is provided by the government and free to all students, being introduced in Students must pay for their own uniforms, pens and notebooks. There is also a shortage of teachers due to challenging teaching and learning conditions. Rates of dropping out are high with only 58% completing Primary School. It s very common for children in Malawi to come in and out of school depending on their family situation. Stay tuned for next week: Secondary School. Please pray for the delegation out of Malawi to visit us in October. Contact Marie Hedden for more information at PAGE 3

4 DO YOU KNOW Our Salvation History: A Chosen People (answers next week) 1. Who are some of the first Chosen People in the Bible? (Genesis 1: 27; Genesis 12: 2-3; Exodus 3: 4) 2. Who were the people chosen by Jesus? (Mark 9:35; 10:32; 11:11; John 6:67 71; 20:24). 3. Are we chosen by God? How do we know? (1st Peter 2: 9; Ephesians 1: 4-5) 4. Paul reminded Timothy that he was chosen for ministry by the laying on of hands. Which Sacrament is this? (1Timothy 4: 14) OLD TESTAMENT FRIENDS ADAM & EVE GINGERBREAD MAN: The gingerbread man does not create himself but rather is created. Gingerbread people remind us of God s creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden, and God s creation of each of us. Spices, reminiscent of those mentioned in the Old Testament, make the gingerbread man the color of earth (Adam was created from the dust of the earth). Like us, gingerbread people are not immortal. They are destined to be eaten and thus to unite with their creators. God does not eat us (rather we consume His Body and Blood in the Eucharist), but our mortal bodies, like that of the gingerbread man s, will not live forever. God created us for eternal union with Him after we die. Gingerbread people remind us to look beyond ourselves to our Creator with whom we will one day be united.
