Mystagogy
Chances are if you’ve heard about mystagogy, you associate it only with RCIA—the fourth and final period of conversion for people becoming full members of the Catholic Church. “It is a time for deepening the Christian experience, for spiritual growth, and for entering more fully into the life and unity of the community” (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, # 7.4).
“Mystagogy is one of the greatest treasures of the Church, one we’ve neglected far too long, and one that would benefit everyone—even longstanding and cradle Catholics,” writes Stratford Caldecott. “Genuine mystagogy leads us ever deeper into the mystery of God’s life lived in us.”
This Catholic Update explains the history of mystagogy from the early Church to today, how mystagogy helps neophytes make the transition to full members of the Church, and how study and especially prayer are important components of mystagogy. Most importantly, mystagogy is not just for RCIA.
