Becoming Catholic - Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA)
-
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process whereby adults enter the Catholic Church. RCIA classes are held weekly and over the course of several months those who attend the RCIA classes are educated on what the Catholic Church believes and are given the opportunity to ask question about those beliefs.
Just because you start RCIA, doesn't mean you are committed to finished. If you are merely curious about what Catholicism is, please feel free to come. All are welcome.The experience of the RCIA is to assist prospective Catholics in their journey to become an active member of the Catholic Church Community. During this personal faith journey, we are involved with Scripture, prayer, Catholic beliefs and practices, and more.
This is all experienced in a community setting with a number of Catholic adults who serve as companions and sponsors. RCIA meets once a week, beginning in August and continues through May. Contact Deacon Jeff Cadenhead.Rite of Christian Initiation for Young Children (RCIA)
St. Anthony's offers preparation for children older than 2nd grade needing the Sacrament of Reconciliation and First Communion. It will parallel the adult RCIA but will focus on children and youth. For more information, contact the DRE, Maryrae Stein in the church office.
