Christianity is not based on rituals. It is based on Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus christ is the son of God, and by his great love, he humbled himself and came down and took human form to take our punishment for sins when he died on the cross.
I think Christianity has two rituals/ordinances:
1. Baptism of believers - Jesus told his disciples to:
Mat 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
2. Breaking of bread/communion - Paul wrote this to the Corinthian Church (he was speaking about Jesus):
1Co 11:23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;
1Co 11:24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me."
1Co 11:25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."
