| RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation Stage 1- Inquiry- Pre-Catechumenate |
| BACK TO RCIA |
| The period of Inquiry is a time for:
asking questions about the Catholic faith building community within the group developing a trusting athmosphere. More importantly, it is a time for: * examining God's presence in our lives, past and present * learning about prayer * fostering conversion * developing or improving our relationship with God * getting to know his church. We read the Sunday Gospel for the week and discuss what it means to us in our lives. We also discuss topics such as: * What brought you to RCIA * What is your image of God * Prayer and liturgy * Who is Jesus * Who is the Holy Spirit * Who is the Trinity * The Saints |
| We celebrate the RITE OF ACCEPTANCE (for those who were never baptized) RITE OF WELCOMING (for those who have been baptized but haven't received 1st Communion or Confirmation) |
