[quote=Anonymous]I have taught RCIA for almost 15 years. New members come in various ways. Some have a calling, some are marrying in to the Church, others just stumbled upon it by visiting different churches and felt ours was "home." Many people start by just attending Mass. Most know that Communion, unlike in other churches, is something more for Catholics and don't participate in taking the Eucharist. That isn't being unfriendly but is an integral part of Catholic mass. Some stay behind in the pews or go up and cross their arms so the priest can give them a blessing. No one at Mass is judging them. I notice these people because 9 times out of 10 they join my class. If I didn't teach RCIA I wouldn't even notice them. [/quote]
