Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA)

..Are you interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith? Do you, or someone you know, wish to become Catholic? Are you a baptized Catholic but have never been confirmed or received First Eucharist? Are you curious about some aspects of our faith or our tradition? …then RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) might be for you!

What is RCIA?

The process of joining the Roman Catholic Church is known as the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). Each year, adults seeking to join the Roman Catholic Church receive weekly support, encouragement, and assistance from the RCIA team members and the parish community.

How do I get started?

If you are interested in becoming a Catholic, seeking Confirmation, or just want to find out more about your faith this class is for you. This class is Scripture based, so if you are just interested in learning more about the Bible, please feel free to join us.

Is RCIA Right For Me?

The RCIA process is designed for adults who are unbaptized or those who were baptized as infants but had little experience with regular church attendance. Individuals baptized in another Christian tradition who have little experience with the Roman Catholic tradition often find this process to be helpful in their discernment of becoming Roman Catholic. If you are an adult who was baptized and active in another Christian tradition and have more than a year of experience within the Roman Catholic tradition, you may want to explore alternatives to this program with our RCIA Directors.

RCIA Class Schedule

Mondays @ 6:00 pm in the Dynamic Classroom at The Basilica High School at 700 Truman Avenue.
