Optional: If you have in your life a person whose presence or companionship has been significant in your spiritual journey and development and who is available to attend the rehearsal and liturgy, we encourage you to include them in this rite of passage. This may be a friend, spouse or partner, parent, or other spiritual mentor. This person will sit with you and accompany you when you come forward for the laying of hands, and she or he will lay a hand on your shoulder while the bishop lays hands to pray for you.
I understand that there is a mandatory rehearsal on Saturday, May 17, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. in the church and I will arrive in the church by 10:45 a.m. (Please park by the Three Chopt entrance as the Farmer's Market will be in the parking lot at this time.)
