Episode 132: What to do with the RCIA During Covid-19?

In this episode, we are joined by Diana Macalintal and Nick Wagner from Team RCIA as we discuss how to go about the sacraments of initiation during Covid-19 and when we open the doors back up.

We answer the question of when to celebrate the sacraments, what to do with the Elect right now, and what a year-around model of RCIA could look like.

In this episode, Chris and John are joined by Diana Macalintal, who is the co-founder of the Team RCIA. We talk about the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults and how the RCIA is more like a process versus a program.
