Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA)

If you or someone you know is interested in knowing more about the Catholic faith or becoming a member of the Catholic faith, we invite you to RCIA (the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults).  RCIA is a 7 month process of getting to know about/becoming a member of the Catholic faith.  We meet most Monday evenings 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. from September  until the Easter Vigil.  Older children, ages 6-13, who wish to be baptized into the Catholic faith have their own sessions on Monday evenings at the same time as RCIA.  This program for the children is called RCIC (the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children).  If you wish more information, contact the Parish Office at 618-656-6450 or Clyde Nosser at [email protected]. All RCIA classes are open to all parishioners.  Parishioners are always welcome to attend and renew and deepen their understanding of the teaching and Traditions of the Catholic Church.  Check the bulletin for current topics and meeting information.
