RCIA
Our parish offers inquiry sessions that allow seekers to examine the Catholic faith more closely. During these sessions, participants ask questions, explore Catholic teachings, and discover what it means to be a Catholic Christian. If participants feel the desire to become Catholic, they may move into a deeper level of faith formation that focuses on prayer, faith sharing, community and reflection. This process is called The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). The RCIA is a series of steps (formal rites) conducted in the context of learning about the faith and spiritual formation, through which a person is fully incorporated into the Body of Christ, the Church.
