RCIA – Become Catholic or Learn More
Know a family member or friend who wants to learn more or become Catholic?
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA), is a process for bringing into the Catholic Church both those who have never been baptized and those who were baptised in a non-Catholic Christian tradition. RCIA is also the best way for adult Catholics who have never been confirmed to prepare for that final Sacrament of Initiation.
Every September, the cathedral begins a new RCIA class and invites everyone who would like to join the Catholic Church, be confirmed or is simply interested in learning about the teachings and customs of Catholic Christianity to come and join them. While classroom work is a part of the process, RCIA is more than a class; it is a gradual introduction to the customs, beliefs, practices and devotions of Catholicism. There is no obligation – only an opportunity to learn.
Several members of our Young Adult Group are Catholic converts who went through RCIA!
The first class begins Tuesday, September 21 and continues each Tuesday evening through May from 6:30 – 8:00 pm in the Cathedral Center. For more info or to register contact Priscilla Estrada at 843.724.8395 x226 or directorofchristianformation@gmail.com.
