Christian Initiation of Adults and Children


Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a faith journey.  A journey involves a movement from one place to another that includes various encounters, changes& experiences taking place along the way.  The time needed in the RCIA faith journey is in contrast to the time needed for a life in a very fast paced culture. The best way to enter this time is to slow down & let yourself enjoy the invitation by God for the beautiful & rewarding journey.  Learning about the Catholic faith involves more than acquiring information & knowledge. Becoming Catholic involves entering & embracing into a faith relationship with a community of faith.

 

Children 7 years and older, that are not baptized, will enter the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults adapted for Children (RCIA/C).  It is recommended that at least one parent of RCIA/C students register and attend adult religious education classes.  Use the 2008-2009 First Year and RCIA/C Form to register.

  

Please contact Mrs. Liz Truccone at the church: 281-337-4112 or at home: 409-925-8018 for more information.

 

RCIA meets on Wednesdays from 7:00pm – 8:30pm.
