RCIA is a process that invites interested persons to consider the Catholic faith. This process is a faith journey and includes gatherings focused on prayer, scripture, topics of interest, and time always to answer your questions/concerns.
The RCIA process leads participants through Formation sessions, retreat times, and in-depth preparation for the Initiation Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist (Communion). Celebration of sacraments may occur at various times during the year. The Easter Vigil (the night before Easter Sunday, April 24, 2011) highlights those folks who request baptism and many others, as well.
