RCIA

If you are interested in discovering what God has in store for you through the Catholic Church, consider joining RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults).

Attending RCIA is a time for you to ask questions, grow in your faith, and decide whether you want to join the Church and receive the Saraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Communion).

Throughout this process you will attend sessions where you will learn the richness of the teachings of Christ through the Scriptures and Traditions of the Church. You will be presented to our parish community in a Rite of Welcome, so our family can pray for you, and then presented to the Archbishop at the Rite of Election. You won't be on this journey alone: we'll help you choose a Sponsor, someone to walk with you as you discover, question, and pray about receiving the Sacraments at Easter. At the Easter Vigil Mass (the night before Easter Sunday), you will receive the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist.

If you have been baptized in another faith tradition and wish to become Catholic, you are invited to join some (or all) of these sessions and be welcomed into the Catholic Church, receiving the sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist at the Easter Vigil.
