My wife and I are both nearing the end of our RCIA journey and our 11 year old daughter her RCIC program. My wife and I are both Baptized Christians it was understood that I would need to have an annulment completed before being received into the church. With just a little over two weeks until Easter Vigil we have learned that my wife will also need to wait with me. This realization was disappointing for her and I both, but we understand and accept it. That said, I have now found out that our daughter will also have to wait as there is a requirement for at least one of the parents to be Catholic. This too we will accept, but it is heartbreaking as we know how badly our daughter wishes to be baptized and was really looking forward to it along with her Confirmation and first Communion. Please pray for us to have patience and for God to strengthen us during this time which could last for months. We will be speaking with our pastor tomorrow, and as I understand it there is a possibility that he can use pastoral judgement and decide to allow her to proceed at Easter Vigil. Not sure if that’s true or not, but am praying this is so.
Thank you and God Bless!
