Initiati

Initiati a name applied to the faithful in the early Christian Church, as being initiated, that is, admitted to the use of sacred offices, and to the knowledge of the sacred mysteries of the Christian religion. Hence the fathers, in speaking of any doctrines which were not explained to the catechumens, were accustomed to say, "The initiated know what is said." St. Ambrose addressed a work especially to the Initiati.
