1. Take an Alpha course. This is a great first step for all who are wondering about the big questions in life.
2. Try a Christ Life small group. This will help you go a little bit further in understanding just what it means to be a Catholic.
3. Consider entering into a formal process of learning about the Faith and being introduced to our community. The best way to start this process called the RCIA or Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is to have a contact our Pastoral Minister Katherine Marsh.
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the process in which adult men and women are initiated into the Church. It is the parish community, through its witness, worship, service and catechesis, that offers the invitation and support necessary for men and women to be initiated into the Church.
Adults who are not yet baptized are accepted into the process as Catechumens, and those already baptized in another recognized Christian tradition are welcomed as Candidates.
The Director of the process, together with a team of Catechists and sponsors, journeys with the catechumens and candidates for a number of months, meeting weekly. The Sacraments of Initiation, Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist are received at Easter each year.
