Rite of Acceptance into the Order of Catechumens
This rite applies when unbaptized adults are asking for the sacraments. The intentions of the enquirer are formally heard and accepted by the community.
The rite is best incorporated into the Sunday Eucharist, however it may be celebrated during a Liturgy of the Word with a “group of the faithful”. The ceremony may be celebrated more than once a year.
