RCIA—the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults—is the process by which adults and older children are introduced to and instructed in the Catholic faith. These candidates are called catechumens. The RCIA journey is highlighted throughout by liturgical rites that aid and assist with the conversion of the catechumens. The entire process takes place over a number of months and typically ends at the Easter Vigil service, when the catechumens become full members of the Roman Catholic Church, the Body of Christ.
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is focused on the “spiritual journey” that is the conversion to Catholicism. The candidates grow both in their relationship with Jesus and with one another as well as develop a sense of parish community. At the Easter Vigil Mass, the RCIA candidates receive the Sacraments of Initiation—Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Eucharist.
Many parishes will be starting their RCIA classes during the month of September, while others offer classes year-round. Contact your local parish if you are interested in learning more about the RCIA or the Catholic faith in general.
With the onset of RCIA classes quickly approaching, it would be a good idea to start ordering your copies of the Catechism and perhaps some RCIA rosaries for your students. Visit Autom.com for a large selection of RCIA products. Wherever you’re at on your journey of faith, may you come to know more deeply God’s personal love for you and His desire to lead you to Himself, the fulfillment of all desire.
