About the Event
This program is designed for men and women who wish to become Catholic. The Catechumens, that is, adults who have never been baptized in any Christian religion, and the Candidates, that is, baptized non-Catholics, make up the membership of this group. Classes are held on a regularly scheduled basis.
The instructor(s) work with the DRE in formulating the curriculum and liturgical celebrations. The Catechumens are baptized and the candidates are received into the church and both groups are confirmed at the Easter Vigil Mass each year. Information for prospective members or catechists can be obtained by visiting the RCIA webpage on our Church website or by calling the Parish Office.
