"The catechumenate is to be 'a formation in the whole Christian life...during which the disciples will be  joined to Christ their teacher.'"

Catechism of the Catholic Church 1248

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the period of formation in an unbaptized adult's life in which he/she is guided by the Church into a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the Catholic faith. Unbaptized adults who are interested in learning more about being Catholic are invited to join our inquiry group as we unwrap some of the teachings of the Catholic Church.

We meet twice a month on Sunday afternoons from 12-2 p.m. in the Parish Center.

Adults who have been baptized in another Christian faith are also welcome to join us on Sunday afternoons; however, the formation of those who have been baptized will be invited into rites and celebrations different yet similar to the rites, celebrations and preparation of our unbaptized adults. Contact Michelle Ross to inquire about making a profession of faith and completing your initiation.

Adults who have already been baptized in the Catholic Church and are seeking to complete their initiation through the sacraments of Holy Communion and Confirmation, RCIA is not necessary. To best determine the route you should take to fully enter into the life of the Church, please contact Michelle Ross.
