Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults
Guidelines and Resources for RCIA Teams
In order to respond to the pastoral needs and practical questions regarding the RCIA process which have arisen since 2003, some clarifications, updates and explanations were added to the Archdiocesan RCIA Guidelines by the staff of the Secretariat for The Center of Catholic Education and Formation. Canonical review and editing was provided by the Judicial Vicar of the Archdiocese of Hartford, Rev. George S. Mukuka, J.C.L.
Please note that this document supersedes any previous guidelines or memorandums distributed since 2003.

It includes primary sources, catechetical and liturgical resources, online training opportunities, and more.
