The Rite of Christian Initiation
What is R.C.I.A.?
The Rite of Christian Initiation (RCIA) for adults and children over the age of 7 is a gradual process of initiation in the Catholic Faith through prayer, study, discussion and celebration.
Who is it for?
RCIA is for:
adults and children over the age of 7, who have not been baptized and wish to explore the Catholic Faith
adults who have been baptized in another Christian community who want to learn more about the Catholic religion and possibly be received into the Faith.
baptized Catholics who have not received the sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation and who desire to enter fully into the community of the Catholic Church.
