The Rite of Christian Intiation for Adults
Has Christ been calling you in moments when your guard is down? In moments when your guard is up? Being formed in His Church and surrounded by its support through faith may be what fulfills your questioning spirit.
* Are you looking to become Catholic?
* Are you a Catholic who hasn't received Communion or Confirmation?
* Have you received these sacraments and are seeking to get reacquainted with your faith?
.....we have an RCIA class for you, filled with peers!
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is a year-long program that prepares people to receive all or some of the sacraments of initiation (baptism, confirmation, communion) at the Easter Vigil. The program offers a comprehensive study of the beliefs of the Catholic Church in a friendly and approachable setting. Even if you have received these sacraments, this is a great opportunity to learn more about our faith.
