什么是 RCIA?

成人基督教入门仪式(RCIA)是天主教会新成员正式入会的集体程序。这一程序回归了公元一世纪和二世纪教会最早成员的形成过程。

美国天主教主教会议将成人基督教入门仪式描述为一个过程,参与者“在学习福音、信仰耶稣和天主教会并接受圣礼时经历……皈依……RCIA 过程遵循教会的古老做法,并由第二次梵蒂冈会议恢复为成年人准备洗礼的正常方式。”同样,RCIA 过程中使用的语言是早期教会形成计划的语言。慕道者是那些通过所有入门圣礼(洗礼、圣餐和坚振)寻求完全加入天主教会的人。候选人是那些按照基督教传统受洗但寻求通过圣餐和坚振加入天主教会的人。

欢迎所有人!

RCIA is a process of study, exploration, faith-sharing, and faith formation with specific liturgical rites for seekers and inquirers. Seekers and inquirers are non-baptized adults who desire to be fully initiated into the Roman Catholic Church and/or baptized adult Christians who desire full communion in the Roman Catholic Church.

Adults or older children who have not been baptized and desire to join the Church are invited into the ancient celebration of the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. During this process, which is marked by regular ritual acts, participants are introduced to the liturgy, the teachings, and the life of the Catholic Church.

Adults or older children who were baptized in another Christian denomination prepare in a similar way for the sacraments of Confirmation and the Eucharist during their reception into the Catholic Church.

RCIA 是一段旅程

RCIA 团队

经历 RCIA 过程的人们需要赞助商和社区支持来帮助他们增强信仰。RCIA 赞助商团队帮助指导、支持和指导那些正在考虑是否成为我们天主教社区成员的人。团队成员与那些想要了解更多天主教信息的成年人分享他们的信仰,其中许多人希望庆祝一项或多项入会圣事:洗礼、圣餐和坚振圣事。
