I think this is marvelous and I hope more dioceses return to the restored order. I had heard through the grapevine that some dioceses had actually rescinded the restored order, so I pleased to hear that it is alive and working well in your diocese. The original order of Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist makes so much sense theolgoically, liturgically and pastorally speaking, too! Thanks for your input! Leota, I am so very happy to hear of this!

Since these sacraments are celebrated during the Easter Season, they soon join their companions who were fully initiated at the Vigil.
