RCIA

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process by which adults are brought into the Church through the celebration of the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist. The process begins in the fall, and culminates in the celebration of the sacraments at the Easter Vigil. A team of volunteers meets every week with those who are preparing for initiation, and on other occasions to plan special activities.
