RCIA - Helping You Make it Work in Your Parish
17 October 2010
Our Department for Adult Education and Evangelisation has published a new guide to help us welcome people into the Church. ‘Making it work in your parish - Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults’ has been dispatched to all our parishes and is available to all.
Father Christopher Whitehead our Director of Adult Education and Evangelisation said: “In November 2008 Bishop Declan presented a new pastoral plan for our diocese - ‘Called to be a People of Hope’. In the section on mission, pastoral councils were invited to help people grow in confidence and knowledge in sharing their faith with others especially those who seek to join the Church. The RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) is the way in which we welcome and share with others our faith and our way of life as Catholics.
“This new booklet has been produced in response to the call to pastoral councils to develop an RCIA team and offers practical first steps for setting about the task.
“‘Making it work in your parish - Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults’ on our ‘Guide to the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults’ which was launched last year.
“All our resources are available to everyone. Just make contact with the Department for Adult Education and Evangelisation.”
