Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

R.C.I.A. is a faith formation process for non Catholics who feel a desire to join the Catholic Church and for baptized Catholics who would like to complete their initiation into the Catholic faith through the reception of the sacraments of Confirmation and Holy Eucharist. Candidates journey together with a sponsor and with the parish community towards the Easter Vigil and reception of the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Eucharist.
