The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process through which adults enter into the Catho- lic Church. Through discussions, prayers, and reflection, we accompany the person on this journey of faith, allowing each person to develop a relationship with God. This process fosters the spiritual needs of the following persons: Those adults never baptized, who seek to become Catholic, Those adults baptized in another Christian church, who seeks to be Catholic. Those adults already baptized as Catholic, but who have not celebrated the Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist. For us, RCIA is not a program, but a process allowing an Inquirer to begin discernment at any time.
