RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults)This is a process to which any adult inquiring into our Roman Catholic faith and way of life is invited. The interested group begins the process in the Fall and by Easter of the following year, each one makes the decision whether to be accepted into the Roman Catholic tradition through Baptism or, if already baptized in the Trinitarian formula, makes a Profession of Faith in the Roman Catholic tradition. Thereafter they receive the Sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation to complete the initiation process. Other adults in the faith community who, for some reason in the past, have not yet been confirmed are invited to the celebration of the Sacrament after a brief preparation by the Office of Faith Formation. The Bishop usually administers the Sacrament of Confirmation once a year at the Cathedral of St. Matthew in South Bend. |
