5 R C I A Do You Want To Become A Catholic? R.C.I.A. Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is a process for those adults interested in learning more about the Catholic faith in order to receive the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. This process is for all men and women who are not baptized, or baptized in another Christian church but in need of further instruction and initiation, or those baptized in the Catholic Church but needing more instruction to complete the sacraments of Initiation. SEVEN REASONS TO JOIN R.C.I.A. (Why seven? Seven is a Holy number in the Old Testament.) 1. You re marrying a Catholic. (Sharing and practicing your faith together is a great foundation to a marriage.) 2. You re already married to a Catholic and your kids are being raised Catholic. (It s natural to want to share in the sacramental experience of your loved ones.) 3. Your children are being raised Catholic and you just want to learn more about the tradition without actually becoming Catholic. (Please join us but you might be surprised what happens!) 4. You ve lived in a Catholic World all your life. (This program is for people of all ages. Every year someone joins us whom everyone in the Parish assumed was already Catholic!) 5. You don t know much about Catholicism but you have a friend or neighbor who has inspired you to learn more. (Actions speak louder than words.) 6. You ve suffered through a personal loss and are seeking to improve your faith. ( Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. ) 7. You don t know why, you just feel something calling you to the Church. (It s the Holy Spirit...listen to it.) For more information, call Classes start September 23rd! N e w s & N o t e s 7 Thank You!
