RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS

The RCIA is a program for adults who:

  • Have not been baptized into the Christian faith;
  • Have been baptized in another Christian denomination and wish to be received into full communion with the Catholic Church,
  • Have been baptized as Catholics but have not been active in the Church;
  • Are practicing Catholics who wish to deepen their understanding of the Catholic faith;
  • Are baptized Catholics who wish to receive the sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist.
This 4-stage program begins in September each year, meeting on Tuesday nights.
  1. The Inquiry Period is a series of 11 classes providing an introductory understanding of the Catholic Church.
  2. The Catechumenate period follows, with a more in depth study of the Catholic Faith.
  3. Lent is the period of Purification and Enlightenment for those preparing to be received into the Church at the Easter Vigil.
  4. The period of Mystagogy is dedicated to post-baptismal catechesis leading to a deeper appreciation of the Paschal Mystery.
A team composed of Fr. Dan Barnett, Deacon Gary Franz, Mark Henderson and Mary Mitchell coordinates the RCIA program. Other parishioners participate by assisting with aspects of the program, and especially by serving as sponsors for those preparing for the sacraments.

ADULT SEARCH
Director: Jackie Keys, 547-8841 ext. 21

SEARCH is a weekend retreat experience for YOUTH and ADULTS alike! Originally the youth model of Cursillo, which originated in Spain, it was expanded to meet the needs of parents and other adults searching for God in their lives. It is for adults of any age, from college age young adults, to grandparents. It is open to single persons or married persons. Married couples may choose to attend together or may choose to attend separate weekends depending on your circumstances. It is open to Catholic and non-Catholic persons who desire a means of searching for God in their lives through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We don't profess that SEARCH is for everyone, but it may be just the retreat experience for YOU!
