The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is an ongoing process offered to: those who wish to join the Catholic faith, for Catholics desiring to receive one or more of the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, or Holy Eucharist) which they did not receive at an earlier age, or to any person interested in learning more about the Church.

This journey of faith and conversion is gradual and suited to individual needs. It is based on the process followed by the early Church and covers all aspects of our faith — history, traditions, beliefs, practices, and rites.

RCIA begins in the fall and continues through the following Easter, when the Sacraments are received.
