Sunday, December 5, 9:00 AM - 10:45 AMOur discussion will center on that great mystery that God the Son is both human and Divine all at the same time. Mind-blowing, but God chose to become one of us out of sheer love to save us. Wow! During class time sponsors and godparents will be meeting in a separate room to go over what their roles are. They will join us in class after the meeting. When all are back in the room together, we will talk about the next step in RCIA: The Rite of Acceptance and Welcome.Read More

How Do I learn more about the Catholic Faith?How Do I Become Catholic?
For adults, the way to join the Catholic Church is a process called RCIA. RCIA stands for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. RCIA is intended for just about anyone and everyone: baptized or not; seekers and doubters; people who don't even want be become Catholic but just want to understand more about the faith of their Catholic spouse or friend; even Catholics who have fallen away and would like to return. In short, RCIA is for you!
No matter where you are in your journey of faith, there is a place for you here with us. Don't be afraid to take that first step. Come, see for yourself what we are all about! -
RCIA Class of 2021: CONGRATS!
BackForwardPauseCaption -
Our sessions are held on Sundays at 9am in the Parish Center Adult Ed rooms (across from the Parish office)
RCIA is the process where adults explore the Catholic Faith in a non-judgmental setting. There is no pressure to join and classes are open to anybody out of high school and over the age of 18.
We will begin with in-person classes* with spread-out seating and individual snacks. Masks are recommended but not required. As we learned last year, we will make any adjustments as needed, so we can give you the best experience as possible, regardless of the circumstances out there!*Note that we will offer a simultaneous Zoom session during our live class so you don't have to miss out if you're stuck at home in the case of illness, quarantine, or childcare issues due to illness/quarantine. The Zoom link will be sent in my weekly email to those registered for RCIA.
Please contact Mary Peacock with any questions, concerns or to register for RCIA!
Either fill out the information on this page (I will email or call you back),
email me at mpeacock@stgerard.org,
