He took bread, said the blessing, broke it and gave it to them. With that their eyes were opened and they recognized him.


"Were not our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us on the way and opened the Scriptures to us?"

R C I A

People often wonder what those four letters mean.

Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults

If someone is thinking of converting to Catholicism, the RCIA is meant for him/her. Or perhaps a person was baptized a Catholic, but never received First Communion or Confirmation. Now they might think that they are too old, that they "missed the boat". Not at all! Many people find themselves in that situation, for many different reasons. The RCIA is meant for them, too. Some may wonder if this RCIA is going to be like being back in school. Not quite. It is a group of people who discuss and learn about faith in God, together. It can actually be fun! If you might be interested please call us at the rectory (351-4224).
