The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a ritual text, prepared and issued by decree of the Roman Catholic Church. It prescribes the preparation and formation of all those who wish to become fully initiated members of the Catholic Faith Family.
Given the title "Pontifical" in 1922, the Pontifical Mission Societies have a special responsibility in the Universal Church. They are under the direct canonical jurisdiction of the Pope, who, together with the entire body of Bishops, remind the faithful of their Baptismal call to mission, as they gather basic support for more than 1,150 mission dioceses in Asia, Africa, the Pacific Islands and Latin America.
The Catholic Spirit is the official newspaper of the Diocese of Metuchen, covering the Catholic communities in Middlesex, Somerset, Hunterdon and Warren Counties. As an evangelizing tool, The Catholic Spirit endeavors to assist the Bishop of Metuchen in his role as teacher and leader of the Roman Catholic Christian community. We strive to be a source of enlightenment, information and witness.
