The Rite of Christian Initiation (itself) occurs at the Easter Vigil, which is the holiest and most solemn celebration of our Faith, because the core mystery of the Faith was revealed in the Resurrection, which the Vigil celebrates. At this great celebration, both the Elect and the Candidates are fully initiated. The Elect will receive all three of the Easter Sacraments, and the Candidates will receive those which they were lacking in their initiation.
After this, both the Elect and the Candidates are considered "Neophytes" for their first year in full communion with the Church, and enter a period of spiritual growth called "Mystagogia". At St. Pius X, we strive to continue to provide ongoing formation and community support throughout this first year and period of growth, and urge the neophytes to be active in our ministries and the community, at large.
