When St. Paul entered Europe his missionary method adapted to the culture of Greece. “We were determined to share with you not only the Gospel of God, but our very selves as well.” Instead of merely preaching and teaching the Apostle entered into a relationship with the people of Thessalonica and shared his life with them. That method reflects the fact that the faith is more caught than it is taught. The RCIA process reflects this missionary method by stressing the importance of forming a community with which to introduce someone to the life of a Catholic. This method is a reflection of the very life of the Trinity by which we understand that God in the very being of God is a relationship.
