Prayer by Seminarian Matthew Bauer Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, and kindle in them the fire of your love; Send forth Thy Spirit, and they shall be created, And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth. Let us pray: Oh God, Who has taught the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant that by that same Holy Spirit, we may be always truly wise and ever rejoice in His consolation. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

RCIA: Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults A process for joining the Catholic faith Baptism is the gateway Followed by Confirmation and Holy Communion

A Little History.... Greek ‘Katholikos’ = catholic = universal Catechumenate – time of instruction and preparation, lasting several years 313 AD – Edict of Milan ends persecution 1000 AD – infant baptism 1900’s – informal ‘convert’ classes

Vatican II Council – met in the early 60’s Guidelines published in 1972 Formal program in US established in 1988 All US parishes now have RCIA programs

The RCIA Process First Step: Pre-Catechumenate Phase Inquirer: refers to someone interested in learning about the faith

Second Phase: Catechumenate Catechumen: an inquirer who is not baptized Candidate: has been baptized Christian, now desiring to join the Catholic Church

Third Phase: The Lenten Season Begins on Ash Wednesday 40 Days of Reflection and Prayer Final week before Easter – Holy Week
