The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process given by the Church for the formation of adults in the faith. The RCIA is an opportunity for you to share your faith journey with others, to learn about the Catholic faith, and to experience the life of the Church community. Beginning a time of prayer and study through the RCIA is not a commitment to join the Roman Catholic Church, although this is the process through which persons who eventually discern the call to do so will be initiated into the Catholic faith. Jesus gently invites each of us, saying to those who are searching, "Come, and you will see." We want to welcome you to travel with us and encourage you to bring us your questions and hopes.
