We invite you to join us for a remarkable journey!
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is not a program but a sacramental formation process particularly for those who are unbaptized and uncatechized. It prepares you for a life of spiritual conversion.
Through the workings of the Holy Spirit, the liturgical Rites, the prayerful support of the Church community and a dedicated team of people sharing the faith, it is our hope that you will enter into a deeper union with Christ through the teachings of the Catholic Faith. The choice to continue in faith formation is always yours.
RCIA instruction is really one rite divided into different periods as one's commitment and understanding grow. Know that throughout this entire faith formation process that you will never be asked to walk alone. The RCIA team is there with you every step of the way.
“Blessed are you that hunger now, for you shall be satisfied.” Luke 6:21
