RCIA/Inquiry Classes

- Discover a Beautiful Faith Here in the Catholic Church
- Are you interested in discovering more about the Catholic Church, it's beliefs, and growing in your own faith and understanding? Then you should join RCIA.
  
  RCIA stands for Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. It is a program designed to help non-Catholics and non-practicing Catholics learn more about Catholicism through a series of classes, discussions, and prayer times.
  
  The RCIA process is a journey that takes place within the Catholic community. We, the Church, will help and guide you through the process marked by four district periods: Inquiry, Growth, Preparation, and Mystagogy. During these periods, you will learn about the Sacraments of the Catholic Church, its ancient historical roots, and its rich and beautiful traditions. At the end of each period, you will be invited to participate in a community-celebrated rite, signifying a continuation in the process of initiation into the Catholic Church.
- We invite you to take a deeper look at the Catholic Faith by joining the RCIA process. Take a moment to complete the contact form below or call the parish office to speak with our one of our priests.
