At the heart of this rite is the ritual action by which the catechumens write their names in the Book of the Elect, thus ritually symbolizing that they have been called by God to become initiated at the great Easter Vigil. The enrollment of names and the subsequent election by the bishop are the most ancient and the most important part of this liturgy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBook of the Elect\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a formal record of the names of all those from the parish who have been elected for baptism. This elegantly designed book provides a dignified option for diverse parishes to ritually inscribe the names of their elect. Quotations from Scripture decorate the pages of this book in both English and Spanish. These texts have been carefully chosen and point to the new reality that has been bestowed upon those who have now been elected by God—the “blessed” ones whom “the Lord . . . has chosen as his heritage” (Psalm 33:12b). The lines on the page provide the elect with enough space to sign their names neatly and legibly. Parishes may also record the date of their election.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Cover:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover of this book presents three overlapping circles as a sign of the Trinitarian relationship of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The circles are placed within an image reminiscent of ancient baptismal fonts. In doing so, the overlapping circles become the focus of the cover and are thus suggestive of the heart of the initiation process—coming to know our God of love and deepening relationship with him in and through the Church. In baptism we are baptized into this Trinitarian relationship and are commissioned to become part of the divine dance, a network of relationships that exudes love, mercy, and justice. The octagonal shape of the font points to new life, a new order, the day of creation (the eighth day, the perfect day), and the day of Christ’s resurrection. Hints of flowing water surround the baptismal shape, an indication of the redemption those elected by God will receive at Easter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Code: \u003cspan class=\"ng-binding\"\u003eBBOE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 978-1-61671-829-9 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Commission on English in the Liturgy United States Conference of Catholic Bishops\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePages:\u003cspan\u003e 128 \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize:\u003cspan class=\"ng-binding ng-scope\" ng-if=\"vm.product.SpProduct.Product_x0020_Dimension_x0020_UP !== null\"\u003e9 x 12\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBinding: \u003cspan class=\"ng-binding ng-scope\" ng-if=\"vm.product.SpProduct.Product_x0020_Fomat_x002F_Bindin !== null\"\u003eHardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Language: Bilingual: English \u0026amp; Spanish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCopyright Year: 2025\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg height=\"34\" width=\"526\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/4600\/9967\/files\/ltp_logo_inline_480x480.jpg?v=1666775506\" alt=\"\" data-mce-style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/4600\/9967\/files\/ltp_logo_inline_480x480.jpg?v=1666775506\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tac\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing the Catholic Community for Over 50 Years\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEstablished by the Archdiocese of Chicago in 1964, LTP promotes the liturgical formation of the faithful called for by the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council.
