What is RCIA?
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) is the process by which adults are initiated into the Catholic Church. The RCIA process is conducted by a team of lay church members and clergy over several months, often beginning each September and continuing through Easter.
RCIA is not a course or class in Catholicism. RCIA is rather a guided process by which those interested in the faith are initiated into the Catholic church.

Who can participate?

There are generally 3 categories of people that particiapte in RCIA:
1. The RCIA process is open to all those individuals who are unbaptized and who express a desire to study Catholic Christian beliefs and practices.
2. The program is also open to those individuals who have been baptized in another Christian denomination and who wish to explore membership in the Catholic Church.
3. Finally, the RCIA is open to Catholics who have been baptized but who have not received the other entry sacraments of Confirmation and/or Holy Eucharist.
