RCIA is not a program, but a sacramental formation process that helps adults and young adults learn about the Catholic Faith and prepare them for the initiation sacraments. This sacramental formation process also prepares individuals for a particular way of life. Conversion is at the heart of that way of life. The Rite of Christian Initiation facilitates the conversion experience. This journey is not merely a matter of learning about the faith, no merely instruction but also a true conversion process.
