Taken directly from the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults guidelines, this is a full-color fold-out chart showing the entire Catechumenal process at a glance. It’s an easy-to-use reference tool ideal for training RCIA teams. Across the top are the names of each of the periods of the RCIA process and the status of the participants, as well as terms used to identify them at any given stage. Down the side, the journey of each possible type of participant is tracked (Unbaptized in green, Baptized Uncatechized in red, and Baptized Catechized but not Catholic in blue), as well as the responsibilities of the Church in each period of the catechumenal process. The dark bars denote the major liturgical gateways of the process, and continue to use the color scheme, with the combining of red and blue to make purple in the case of Baptized participants, since both of these categories of people can go through the same gateways. Each period is divided into three aspects: liturgical, catechetical, and pastoral. This chart makes the information in the guidelines of the RCIA ritual book from the Holy See available at a glance in an easy to understand color-coded visual format. Edited by Barbara A. Morgan and William J. Keimig. 7¾ x 10 inches folded, opens to 38½ x 10 inches. Click here to view comments about ACM’s publications.
