The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a path by which interested individuals feel moved by the Spirit of the Triune God to seek Him through inquiry into the Catholic Christian faith. The Rite is an ancient one in the Church whereby early inquirers became believers through a spiritual journey which allowed them the opportunity to come to know the Lord, themselves, and their service to the community.
RCIA classes begin in September and go through April. If you are interested in attending, complete the Registration forms and return no later than 9/11/20. If you have any questions, call the church office at 903.893.5148.
