Overview

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a journey designed for adults who, after hearing the mystery of Christ proclaimed, consciously and freely seek the living God and enter the way of faith and conversion as the Holy Spirit enters their hearts. 

It is also for baptized, but un-catechized Catholics who are preparing for confirmation and Eucharist, as well as baptized Christians from other traditions who wish to be received into full communion with the Catholic Church.  

 RCIA begins after Pentecost (usually June) and lasts until the follow year's Pentecost celebration.

 

Join Us

People thinking about joining RCIA are welcome to join with the current sessions on the first Sundays of the month. In these sessions we explore various prayer methods to help people to discover other ways of praying.

Please contact Deacon Bernard Young for more information.
