RCIA 2.0

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process within the Catholic Church designed for individuals who are interested in becoming Catholic or completing their initiation into the Church. This journey involves several stages of spiritual formation, instruction in the Catholic faith, and participation in the life of the Church community. Typically, RCIA includes a period of inquiry, where participants explore their interest in Catholicism, followed by catechesis, which is deeper instruction in the beliefs and practices of the Church.

The process culminates in the sacraments of initiation—Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist—usually celebrated at the Easter Vigil. Through RCIA, candidates are gradually introduced to the Catholic way of life, supported by sponsors, clergy, and the church community, as they prepare to enter full communion with the Church.

    5. Question and Answer Time  Catechumens are encouraged throughout the program to ask questions.

A recent survey found that many catechumens still had many unanswered questions after completing their catecheses. Many felt they did not fully understand the teachings of the Catholic Church.

Research indicates that people learn more effectively when concepts, ideas, and facts are reinforced by third-party educators. Bringing in third-party facilitators or educators to help with the learning process offers several distinct benefits, making the overall education experience more effective and enriching. Learners often perceive third-party educators as neutral and credible sources of information, especially when they are experts in their field. This external authority can enhance the learner’s confidence in the material being taught, creating a greater willingness to engage with and accept the information.

Our comprehensive program introduces Catholic teaching in a fun and contemporary manner. We work with your existing RCIA instructor to reinforce what is being taught by explaining the “Why” and help supplement the education already provided.

Parishes grow and flourish when parishioners & catechumens alike integrate their faith into their personal lives and have the tools to defend and explain the Catholic faith.
