Sessions in the fall of 2009 will be held on Tuesday evenings at St. Maria Goretti Church from 7 to 8:30 PM beginning September 15.

Adults who are interested in exploring membership in the Catholic Church are invited to attend sessions that are offered weekly on Wednesday evenings.  All are welcome. 

• The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process for anyone who wants to become a member of the Catholic faith community.
• Evening sessions meet regularly during the year to explore the meaning of our faith and to help individuals discern their call.
• These sessions are for persons who would like to be baptized, who have been previously baptized in another Christian faith or who were baptized Catholic but not raised in the faith.
• These sessions are open to all who are curious about Catholicism.  There is no obligation to enter into the Church.

RCIA is not just a program;  it is a journey—a journey one makes together with the Catholic community in search of God.  Members of the parish participate as team members, sponsors,  catechists, and offer encouragement and prayer support.
