Rites of Christian Initiation for Adults

RCIA Inquiry:

If you or someone you know is interested in becoming a Catholic, or if you are an inactive Catholic who has been away from the Church, please join Frank Sevick in the Parish Center.

RCIA

St. James Cathedral invites you to pay us a visit!
You are under no obligation, you can visit any of our classes, anytime, even just to see what’s going on!

Are you:

  • interested in learning more about the Catholic Church?
  • unbaptized and you have a need for spirituality in your life?
  • baptized, but never received any formal religious education?
  • married to a Catholic and you attend Mass with them, and you want to share in their faith?
  • seeking something in your life, but are not sure what it is?

The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) is the place for you. Every year adults are welcomed into the Catholic Community through RCIA. It is a learning experience that will change your life and give your life new meaning and new direction. Jesus Christ, who is our Lord and Savior, is the model we all should aspire to be like. He can also help in your family life by giving guidance to your children in their social interactions and keep them from the dangers of the world that are outside of your control.

“Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20.
