Based on the Vatican 2 document:
On the Mission Activity of the Church
Ad Gentes  - 14

This article produced one of the great fruits of Vatican II:
a restored catechumenate ....with catechumens taking part in a restored liturgy:

"It is to be desired that the liturgy of the Lenten and Paschal seasons should be restored in such a way as to dispose the hearts of the catechumens to celebrate the Easter mystery at whose solemn ceremonies they are reborn to Christ through baptism"

Jesus, please bless all catechumens and their catechists
