Book Description
Christian initiation is a gradual process "suited to the spiritual journey of adults that varies according to the many forms of God's grace, the free cooperation of the individuals, the action of the Church and the circumstances of time and place". How does that fit into a program modeled after the school year? It doesn't, argues Mary Birmingham. The Rite of Christian initiation of adults 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. This book will help you imagine, envision, understand and implement a year-round catechumenate in your parish. --Book cover

Author: Anne Koester
Publisher: Liturgical Press
ISBN: 0814666221

Book Description
What does conversion look like for children and youth? How do we teach them that conversion is a way of life that requires daily commitment? These questions are even more pressing today than they were in 1988 when the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (with adaptations for children) was issued. In Children and Youth in the Catechumenate, Anne Koester shows catechumenate ministers how to immerse young seekers into an apprenticeship in Christian life. By using the liturgy of the church and the liturgy of life, she demonstrates the four integral dimensions of Christian discipleship that form young believers for mission.
