One after another, parishes throughout the world are adopting the thinking and practice of the R.C.I.A. - the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.

This book is primarily intended as one of the tools for use by those parishes in which people are embarking on the catechumenate period of the R.C.I.A., or for those who would like a change in the materials they are using. Ideas and suggestions are given for the candidates, their friends and sponsors, group leaders and other parishioners, for use during this period.

The contents are divided into twenty 'sessions', each having an introductory text on a theme for home reading, followed by suggestions for group discussion and exploration. Each session concludes with a short period of prayer.
