What
is the RCIA? The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
is a process or a journey
which gently leads adults (those unbaptized and those baptized in
other faith traditions) into a deeper relationship with Jesus
Christ within the Catholic Church. The RCIA is modeled
after the Catechumenate of the early Church when adults who sought
entry into the Church went through various periods of growth and
formation. Our Catechumens meet regularly for prayer,
faith sharing and study of Catholic Church beliefs. A person
may continue to participate in these sessions as long as he or she
wishes. Through Sacred Rites which are held at
successive intervals, the Inquirer is introduced into the life of
faith, liturgy and love. |

CHRISTIAN
INITIATION OF ADULTS (R.C.I.A.)
Where
do you go when you have questions about God? About the meaning of
life? About prayer or sin or Mary or the saints? How do you
respond when you are touched by another person's faith or
selflessness or goodness? Do you want to know more about what
Catholics believe and perhaps even take the first step in joining
the Catholic Church? If so, you are invited to join with others
who have similar questions. Please call Janet Foxenberger
at 885-7861
if you are interested or know of someone who would be interested. |
