The Second Vatican Council instituted the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, or RCIA, some 40 years ago. Its history stems from the earliest days of the Christian Church and has been handed on to us. This Rite is understood to be the norm for all Initiation.

RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults)

Thinking of Becoming Catholic?

The RCIA Process is for unbaptized, those baptized in another faith tradition, as well as adults who have been baptized Catholic and have not celebrated the sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation.

The RCIA process is for those who are interested in finding out more about the Catholic faith.  Most people join us because they are invited. Be the voice of Christ and offer the first invitation.
