The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

A Journey in Faith

 

Today, too, the Spirit is calling men and women to set out and encounter all those who are waiting to discover the beauty, goodness, and truth of the Christian faith.

(Pope Francis,  Antiquum mysterium 5)

 

We are in the process of preparing a complete set of resources for use in parishes.

Our aim is to create a body of materials which can be used flexibly according to the needs of the parish and which can also be added-to and updated over time.

As these become available, they will appear on this and the pages following, and can be used and adapted freely.

The materials are divided into three phases reflecting the RCIA process:

      • Catechumenate: A journey in faith to explore the faith and teachings of the Catholic Church
      • Lenten Purification and Enlightenment: For the Elect proceeding through Lent to the celebration of Easter
      • Postbaptismal Catechesis or Mystagogy: For all Catholics to journey in faith from Easter to Pentecost
