What people are saying
Like Nick Wagner, I have a “disreputable past” when it comes to implementing the RCIA back in the day. If only I had a copy of The Way of Faith, I could have avoided a lot of mistakes and had a lot of my own murky ideas about the RCIA clarified and corrected. This book provides newcomers to the RCIA ministry with the valuable guidance they will need to understand the Rite and to implement it most effectively.

Spouses as sponsors in the RCIA process

September 25th, 2008 by Nick

What are your thoughts on allowing a husbands or wives to serve as sponsors for their spouses? I’m uncomfortable with it, but it seems as though it happens in a lot of parishes. If you allow spouse-sponsors in your parish, what has been your experience? Do you make a distinction between sponsors and godparents? That is, might a spouse be okay as a sponsor, but not as a godparent?

Font issue fixed

July 31st, 2008 by Nick

Under normal circumstances, the folks at TeamRCIA think big fonts are a good thing. But not when the fonts are typefaces that make the Web site look like a large-print edition of Reader’s Digest. If the Web browser you are using is Internet Explorer, you’ve been seeing a pretty ugly Web site here for the last several days. We appologize for the inconvienence. It took our IT department (pictured) a while to figure out what was wrong. We finally went to “font school” to get some answers. Click on the link below to access the learning center.
