What is RCIA?
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a communal process of spiritual and educational formation for adults who seek to become full members of the Roman Catholic Church through a conversion of mind and heart. The process is open to all persons, regardless of religious background or philosophical persuasion, who genuinely seek, by God’s grace, to live their lives in the distinctive Catholic Christian faith.
RCIA serves:
- Adults who are seeking baptism
- Baptized Catholics who want to complete the Sacraments of Initiation
- Christians from other denominations who wish to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church
When does RCIA meet?
We meet throughout the year. Beginning in September, we meet every Thursday at 6:30 p.m. with a few exceptions.
