RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults- Non-Catholic Spouses
encouraged to attend) This process is “designed 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”. The first stage of this process is referred to as the
Precatechumenate or “inquiry” period which means that your questions will be
answered before you make your final decision to freely become Catholic.
Classes will be held on Wednesday nights, beginning September 8th from
7pm-8:30pm in the Father Kasper room in the lower level of the Church.
These classes take place weekly until the end of the Easter season.
