Adult Catholic Inquiry
|
|
|
Our Parish program is for those interested in becoming a full member of the Catholic Church. The first sessions are especially designed as a basic introduction to the Gospel values and Catholic beliefs and practices. This program is also designed for adults who were baptized as infants or children but have not been initiated with all the Easter Sacraments (that is, have not received the Sacraments of Confirmation and First Holy Communion.)
If you are not a member of the Catholic Church but would like to know more about Catholicism or to explore the possibility of becoming Catholic, this is a perfect time to ask questions about Church teachings and what it means to be Catholic. Individuals are under no obligation.
For more information please call Melanie Oliver or Father Ed Gearhart at 342-8861.

Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA)
|
|
|
Those seeking a deeper relationship with Christ through membership in the Catholic Church, are guided through the RCIA process (the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults). Inquiry and study of Catholic traditions and doctrine lead to full participation through the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Communion, and Confirmation) and reflection on the depth of God's love revealed in the Paschal Mystery. The new Catholic joins the Body of Christ in a lifelong journey of conversion and discipleship. RCIA follows a nine-month school formula.
For more information, please call Melanie Oliver or Father Ed Gearhart at 342-8861. |
