Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Paper Description
This paper is a study on the prayer texts and the ritual behaviors of both Rites of Initiation and Monastic Profession. The Rite of Initiation and the Rite of Monastic Profession are both rites of incorporation to a community. The prayer texts in both rites themselves reveal a theology that speaks much about the journey to the Christian life. They reveal how the gift of conversion and how the process of incorporation into the church or monastic community become all works of God, through the Holy Spirit, and without Him nothing is possible. These assertions will be established through a closer look on the prayers of both rites.
