Rite Path
Track the OCIA year — stage by stage, rite by rite
The five stages of the journey into the Catholic Church as a path you advance through, plus the rites you receive with their dates, a sponsor-meeting log, a questions queue, a reflection journal and an offline glossary. Free, in your browser, nothing leaves it.
Stored in your browser only. Nothing you do in the web version is sent to our servers. Clear your browser data and it's gone — so export a backup from the in-app menu if you want to keep it.

What you can do in Rite Path on the web
The five stages as a path
Inquiry, Catechumenate, Purification & Enlightenment, the Easter Vigil and Mystagogy on a gold spine — mark each reached and completed, and the banner always tells you where you are.
Every rite, with its date
Log the Rite of Acceptance, the Rite of Election, the three Scrutinies, the Presentations and the Sacraments of Initiation; upcoming and received split apart, with days-until on each.
Sponsor-meeting log
Date, who you met, what you discussed and what was assigned — the record that replaces the notes in the back of a missal.
Questions queue
Jot a question the moment it surfaces, then record the answer and mark it addressed; reopen it if the answer raises another.
Reflection journal
Timestamped entries stamped with the stage you were in, so the year reads back in order — and exports as plain text.
16-term offline glossary
Catechumen, candidate, scrutiny, the Elect, mystagogy, neophyte and the rest, each with a pronunciation and a plain-language definition, searchable.

Questions
Is the web version of Rite Path free?+
Yes. Sign in with a free All Things AI account and use every screen — no subscription, no in-app purchases.
Where is my data stored?+
Only in this browser's local storage. Nothing you enter is sent to our servers, so we can't see it, back it up, or restore it. Clearing site data, a private window, or another device starts empty. Export a backup from the in-app menu to keep it.
Do I need an account?+
You can read about the app without one, but you must sign in to open it. Sign-in is free and takes a few seconds with Google.
How is the web version different from the Rite Path iPhone app?+
The iPhone app can remind you before a rite or a sponsor meeting; the web version has no notifications, so the dates only appear when you open it. Everything is saved in this browser alone — export a JSON backup to move your journey to another device. Rite Path is a personal record, not an official Church document: your parish keeps the register, and parishes vary in how they name and order the rites.
