Description:
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults requires several steps of discernment, as those contemplating a major step attempt to discover what direction to take. Beneath the public ritual of turning to God, candidates wrestle with personal questions, asking themselves: Is God truly calling me? How can I be sure? Am I called to join this community? Which past behaviors have given me life and which were destructive? How can I let go and be open to God's love?

This book serves to improve the listening skills of guides and helps them ask the right questions at the right time. The appendix contains specific suggestions for interviews during the four stages of the catechumenate and offers a format for a discernment day before the Rite of Election.

Description:
Why is it that when Christians are asked to explain their faith they are often left speechless? True, there is much about faith that defies description and explanation. Yet John Pritchard thinks we can do better than stunned silence when posed with challenging questions about what it means to have faith in Jesus. In a world that increasingly doubts the need for organized religion, it is important for Christians to have straightforward and respectful answers to questions such as "Is Christianity for those who can't get a life?" and "What use is a dying God?" and "What's the use of praying?" In How to Explain Your Faith, Pritchard helps us explore these challenging questions and many more.

In a style that is simple without being simplistic or sugar-coated, practical without being preachy or pious, Pritchard takes readers to the heart of the matter of Christian faith.

Description:
From the opening hymn to the closing song, Anne Koester takes us on a journey through the Sunday Mass, offering meaningful insights to enhance our weekly gathering. Koester speaks as if she sits across the table from us, sharing her thoughts about our individual roles in the church and why they are so important. Inspired by real-life conversations on this topic, Sunday Mass: Our Role and Why it Matters encourages us to become a more active assembly so we may be further enriched by the liturgical celebration. To help us fully understand our mission and ministry as the Body of Christ, Koester includes some of her conversations as examples and offers relevant reflection material with room for us to note our personal thoughts and responses.

This thoughtful book presents new perspective on the eucharistic celebration in a way that teaches us to fully engage in the Mass each week, to enjoy that time spent with God and our fellow parishioners, and to share our faith with others as we "go to love and serve the Lord."

Bill Huebsch offers a blueprint for how to bring the dreams and visions for a GREAT parish to fruition. He shows parish leaders and ministers how to move in the direction of lifelong faith formation by offering adults in the parish powerful conversion experiences (particularly through parish-based retreats and intergenerational Faith Gatherings).

He also offers a clear and consistent plan for step-by-step growth, with special emphasis on excellent liturgies, strong and effective catechist and teacher formation, and developing households of faith—in every home in the parish. In this definitive guide, he not only shows parishes how to get started but also how to keep going until lifelong faith formation is a reality.

Dreams and Visions offers a strong plan of formation for the whole community with the goal of helping all parishioners turn their hearts so fully toward Christ that a fire is lit in the heart of the parish itself. Highly recommended for all pastors, parish teams, DREs, and parish ministers.

Description:

Becoming Catholic is a process of falling in love. The person we're falling in love with, over and over again, more and more deeply, is Jesus Christ. To become Catholic, you have to open your heart to the love Jesus has for you and return that love as best you can.

So begins The Heart of Faith, where catechumens and baptized candidates quickly learn that Jesus Christ will be their focus throughout their journey through the catechumenate. They will learn what they need to do to become Catholic too, of course, as they discern, pray, worship, break open the Word, and try to live their daily lives as followers of Christ.

They will learn in particular what living the way of Christ looks like.

The author says it involves these four things:

• A conversion of mind and heart
• An understanding of what the Church teaches
• A loving heart
• A true desire to be initiated (or received into full communion).

He guides catechumens and baptized candidates through the entire process of preparing for initiation or reception into full communion. Wagner covers the major rites (e.g. the Rite of Acceptance, the Rite of Election, the Scrutinies) as well as keeping Lent, celebrating the Triduum, and life after baptism.

Description:
How does the vision of Christian initiation outlined in The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults fit into a program modeled after the school year? It doesn't, argues Mary Birmingham. The RCIA describes an initiation process that exists at the heart of the Church's life and on the same schedule as the Church: every day, all year long. While that may sound overwhelming and unimaginable, Birmingham carefully explains how it is not only possible but also the best stewardship of the gifts and talents of initiation ministers. She then walks the reader step by step through the periods and rites of the RCIA, providing helpful insight along the way. Chapters cover topics such as: sacramental catechesis; the periods and rites of initiation; the initiating community; mystagogia; doctrine and the catechumenate.

Description:
It’s the third Wednesday of the month, and that means it’s your turn to lead the catechumenate session. Your group includes, at one end of the spectrum, an unbaptized single mother who has trouble understanding “this whole three-persons-in-one-God” thing.

At the other end is a Baptist former seminarian who is preparing to marry a faithful Catholic woman. He has been at Sunday Mass—and often weekday Mass—every week for the last two years. He is also good friends with the pastor, and they frequently discuss articles from America magazine together.
And then there are several folks between those two extremes. How can you possibly prepare a catechetical session that will meet the needs of these diverse people?

That’s exactly the question we’ll tackle in Joint RCIA formation: Catechizing the catechized and uncatechized together—our next TeamRCIA webinar. Join Nick Wagner and Diana Macalintal for an in-depth look at these topics:

• Why it is crucial to distinguish between the catechized and uncatechized in faith formation
• What the RCIA means, exactly, by “catechized,” “uncatechized,” and how you can discern the difference
• A thorough overview of how to catechize both the catechized and the uncatechized—even if your team is small
• The “so what?”—a discussion about the benefits to your initiation process if you clarify your catechetical focus

Don’t miss this important team training event. Invite your colleagues and friends.

What you'll need for the Webinar:
All you need is a computer connected to the Internet and speakers or headphones to hear the presentation. That's it! You will be able to ask questions by typing them using your computer.

Description:
Working with children in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is challenging. We often encounter parents who want their unbaptized children to celebrate the sacraments of initiation with their peers. We have parish catechists who are unsure about their role in the catechumenate process. The catechetical leader or director of religious education often feels left out of the process. So what does a parish do?

Carolyn Stucke and Jane Pierron have written a helpful, practical e-booklet that will guide you through all of these questions and more. Their plain, common-sense solutions will help all the children’s ministers of the parish to be more confident in carrying out the church’s vision of initiation for children.

Rita deals with frequently asked questions such as:

• Should the child be baptized and remain in the religious education program?
• Should the child participate in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) instead of religious education?
• Or should the child participate in both RCIA and religious education?

Rita’s brochure also includes a sample precatechumenate session for children and families. Using her simple, comprehensive outline, you can further develop your own precatechumenate sessions to help you and your inquiry families discern their next steps on the journey of faith.

Has this ever happened to you? It was your turn to lead the catechetical session for your initiation process. You gave a stellar presentation on the distinctions between sanctifying and actual grace. You used an animated PowerPoint; you provided a step-by-step handout. You even managed to inject a little humor.

Then, at the end of your 45 minutes, you asked if there are any questions. And…nothing. Crickets chirped quietly outside the classroom window.

Did they get it? Did they understand what you were telling them? Will it make any difference in their lives? How do you know? How do you know if you are having any impact at all on the faith lives of the catechumens?

When it comes to teaching adults, we have to switch gears. Adults have distinct learning needs and learning styles. In this 60-minute online workshop, Nick Wagner and Diana Macalintal will explore:

• Why using an adult-learning model is essential for catechumenate formation
• What adult learning looks like
• How to lead a catechetical session using adult learning methods
• What the impact of an adult learning process might be for your parish

Description:
Leisa Anslinger's first seven chapters offer essential principles that have evolved from discussions with pastoral leaders in a variety of ministerial settings, as well as careful study of sacred Scripture, theology, Church documents, and current research.

Section two pulls all the principles together by offering "seasonal renewal" focus points with examples of how the seasons can lead parishioners toward a living relationship with Christ—with Sunday Eucharist at the center.

The concluding section offers an "Appreciative Process for Planning and Development," to help pastoral leaders build on what is already contributing to positive, dynamic life within their parishes.

Turning Hearts to Christ is a dynamic and essential planning resource for pastors, parish leadership teams, pastoral staffs, pastoral council members, faith formation, evangelization, and stewardship committee members.

Indeed, the entire focus of its liturgical celebrations is conversion to a Christ-centered life. Whole Community Liturgy is an invaluable, practical resource for any parish, particularly those implementing a whole community catechesis model of formation.

Description:
Christian initiation is a journey marked with the teachings, rituals, actions and songs of faith—a Hallelujah highway, one might say. The history of how the Church has initiated adults and children over the centuries is itself a journey from a vibrant process adapted in many ways according to local need, through a period of dormancy, and back to a vibrancy just beginning to be understood and appreciated. In this exciting book Paul Turner relates the history of the catechumenate through the stories of people and documents that played a significant role in developing the rites and recording its development from the earliest days of the Church to the present. Quotations from the documents, maps and photos of significant places and artifacts enrich and enliven the story.

Description:
Janet Miller, author and designer of Friends on the Way, gives us a complete walk-through of this simple, concrete, comprehensive catechesis for child catechumens.

Friends on the Way includes a dismissal session and a catechetical session for every Sunday of the liturgical year. In the course of the year, children learn about the entire mystery of faith. And each session includes a direct link to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Also, you can use Friends on the Way to help the parents catechize their children—even if the parents' level of faith-knowledge is not very strong. Each session includes an optional intergenerational activity that will get the whole family interacting together plus a reproducible handout for families to take home, which helps them pray, share faith, and put that faith into action.

The best thing about Friends on the Way is that it is completely electronic. That means you download each session directly to your computer as a PDF file, and you keep that file on your computer as long as you want. Plus, you have our permission to forward that file and to print as many copies as you like for each of the catechists on your team.

Sneak preview of Friends on the Way

Janet is working on the sessions for Year A as we speak. Advent is finished and available now. Christmastide and Winter Ordinary Time are soon to follow.

Description:
The RCIA says that parents are supposed to serve as sponsors for their unbaptized children. However, sometimes the parents are in need of conversion more than their children are!

Why does the rite put parents in such a crucial role? What exactly are their duties? How do we engage them more completely in their children’s initiation?
