The process of “becoming Catholic,” known in the Church as the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA), calls for the “whetting the appetite,” if you will, for someone on a journey to a deeper relationship with God. RCIA is not meant to be a credited course in theology nor is it meant to answer every question one has about the Roman Catholic faith. Rather, it is meant to open one up to come closer to God via faith in the Church: her sacramental life, theology and the lived-experience of being Catholic in the community.
If you are not Catholic but attend Mass with your Catholic family perhaps you’ve considered joining them in the practice of the faith. If so, just come to a session and investigate. See why Christ gave our Church His Sacramental Life; what does the Church say theologically—as opposed to what TV portrays as “Catholic,” and learn what it means to be part of the Mystical Body of Christ—and how that can impact your Eternal Life. The following is our schedule for RCIA meetings:
Tuesday nights, in the library at 7 p.m. on: Nov 11, December 4 & 11, January 8 & 22, Feb 5 & 19, March 5 & 26, and April 9.
