Child: Amen. __________________________________________________________________ Introduction into the Church 269. After the signing, the celebrant invites the catechumens to enter the church in these or similar words: Now you can take your place in the Christian assembly. Come and listen to the Lord, who speaks to us, and join us in praying to him. Once these words of invitation have been heard, the children enter and take places either with their parents (their sponsors) or with the baptized companions of their catechetical group (cf. no. 254.1), so that it is clear that they now are a part of the congregation. Meanwhile, during the entrance, Psalm 95 (94) or Psalm 122 (121) or another suitable chant is sung. Psalm 95 (94) 1 Come, let us ring out our joy to the Lord; hail the rock who saves us. 2 Let us come into his presence, giving thanks; let us hail him with a song of praise. 324
