The Second Vatican Council prescribed the revision of the rite of baptism of adults and decreed that the Catechumenate for adults, divided into several steps, should be restored. The process called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults was approved in 1972 by Pope Paul VI.
God is the initiator of the faith journey upon which people embark. In the process of the RCIA adults who consciously and freely seek the living God enter the way of faith and conversion as the Holy Spirit opens their hearts.
The initiation of catechumens is a gradual process that takes place within the community of the faithful. This journey includes not only the periods for making inquiry and for maturing, but also the steps marking the catechumens’ progress. These steps are marked by liturgical rites which take place in the community of the faithful.
If you are someone who might like to inquire into the Catholic faith, or if you know someone who has expressed an interest, Sr. Dolores will be happy to talk with you.
