RCIA

RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS

Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” John 8:12

RCIA is the process by which adults formally join the Catholic Church. If you are:

Not baptized, but recognize a need for spirituality in your life

Baptized into another Christian denomination, but wish to join the Catholic Church

Married to a Catholic and attend Mass but want to take the next step to become a Catholic

Baptized Catholic, but never received the Sacrament of Confirmation

Interested in learning more about the Catholic Church

RCIA can help you. The RCIA Team, the candidates and their sponsors meet over several months starting around October/November culminating at the Easter Vigil. The gatherings are marked by sharing, listening, learning, teaching and answering questions etc. Enriched with faith, hope and love and to know of the Almighty’s promise to us we will journey this together.
If you or someone you know might be interested, please contact Chiara our Sacraments Co-ordinator at the parish office or email at sacraments@stpatrickspakenham.com.au
