The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process through which adults become members of the Catholic Church. It involves a series of stages, including inquiry, catechumenate, purification and enlightenment, and initiation. The RCIA is designed to help individuals learn more about the Catholic faith and discern whether they feel called to become Catholic. It is a journey towards full initiation into the Church, which typically culminates in the reception of the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist. The RCIA is a meaningful and transformative experience that welcomes individuals into the Catholic community and deepens their relationship with God.
