The RCIA - Adapted for Children is a gradual, spiritual journey of conversion for unbaptized children who have reached the "use of reason", and are of catechetical age (usually over the age of 7 years).  This  unhurried, and gradual process, results in a deeper grasp of the Paschal Mystery (Christ's life, death, resurrection and glorification), and ultimately in the child's reception of full, sacramental initiation (The sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist).   

The R.C.I. A. - Adapted for Children is intended for:

• Children who have never been baptized; whether catechized or uncatechized
• Children baptized in another Christian faith, who are uncatechized 
• Children baptized in the Catholic faith, who are unchurched, and uncatechized        

The duration of the R.C.I.A. - Adapted for Children process can vary, based on individual requirements.  If you would like more information on the process for your child, or if you have other related questions, please contact Becky Lucas at 817-460-2751.
