RCIA: Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
The Process…..
The RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) is a process through which
a person(s) gradually deepens their personal relationship with Jesus Christ and
lives out their faith in the Catholic community. The RCIA process emphasizes
personal conversion and a commitment to the Catholic way of life.
You may be wondering…..is the RCIA process for me?
The RCIA process is for three groups of people:
- Those who are not baptized (known as "catechumens")
- Those who were baptized in another Christian denomination and want to enter
into full communion with the Catholic Church
- Baptized Catholics who were not instructed in the Catholic faith and who
have not completed their initiation through the sacraments of Confirmation and
Eucharist.
The latter two groups are known as "candidates".
