Catholicism is a Way of Life

Faith in Christ is not something we have. It is what we live everyday at home, work, the market…traffic!

RCIA, the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, is not a program for conversion. It is a process that continues the journey of faith we’ve traveled our whole lives. During weekly meetings we gather together we pray the, Sunday Gospel and share how our lives shed light on the words and teachings of Jesus, and how the Gospel brings sense and order to our lives.

RCIA is for people who wish to explore the Catholic faith in search of an expression for the experience of God they live daily.

If you are seeking full initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist), or  are a baptized Christian asking for full communion (Confirmation and Eucharist) and feel God’s call to a deeper relationship with Jesus and the community of faith contact the RCIA Director, Barbara Murphy, for more information or pick up a brochure at all the Church entrances.

“The rite of Christian initiation…is…for adults, who after hearing the mystery of Christ proclaimed, consciously and freely seek the living God and enter the way of faith and conversion as the Holy Spirit opens their hearts. By God’s help they will be strengthened spiritually during their preparation and at the proper time will receive the sacraments fruitfully” (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, 1).
