R.C.I.A. Program

Contact Person:
Lorretta Budzyn

Purpose:
RCIA is short for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. It is a process by which those seeking Baptism in the Catholic tradition, Confirmation, and Eucharist; those from other religious traditions and non-Christians who want to learn more about the Catholic faith; those baptized Catholic as infants and are seeking first Eucharist or Confirmation; and those wishing to refresh their knowledge about their Catholic faith are invited and welcome to attend scheduled sessions.

RCIA is designed to welcome new members into the church and, at the same time, this process seeks to lead every Catholic parishioner to deeper belief and a renewal of his or her faith.

RCIA provides a time to gather and to study doctrine and theology of the Catholic faith, a time to share lived experiences and to see how God has been a part of your life and a time to experience prayer and Scripture.

Membership:
Registrations for the class sessions take place in August. Information is posted in the Parish bulletin. If you are interested in this program you may register by calling the Parish Office (265-8938).
