RCIA

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults provides liturgical rites and a process of formation in the Christian life by which unbaptized adults are joined to Christ and to the Church.  The R.C.I.A. also contains adapted rites and guidelines for the formation of baptized Catholics who have not received the sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist, and also for those who were baptized in other Christian churches and desire to be received into full communion with the Catholic Church. 

Baptism is the sacrament of faith.  But faith needs the community of believers.  It is only within the faith of the Church that each of the faithful can believe.
