Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

(RCIA)

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process where adults enter the Catholic Church. 

All those are welcomed who are considering becoming a Catholic; receive the Sacraments, or who simply wish to learn more about the Catholic Church. You will find no better way to do this than to become a part of RCIA. The entire parish community is welcomed to participate in this program. Hospitality toward candidates, prayer for catechumens, sponsoring a candidate, or participating in the catechesis is a way to support the program. 

We are all called to evangelize our families, neighbors and friends. If you or someone you know has expressed interest in learning about the Catholic faith, being baptized, or confirmed, are encouraged to invite them to our meetings.
