RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) is the process by which adults become Catholic.
If you or anyone you know is not a fully initiated Catholic and wishes to learn more about the Catholic Faith, RCIA is what you are looking for. In the RCIA process, we learn about the basic teachings of the Catholic Faith.
This process is designed to lead to initiation into the Catholic Church through the sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and/or Confirmation. In coming to the RCIA sessions, though, there is no obligation to join the Church.
RCIA sessions are held in room 102 in the Compound 8:45-10:45 AM on Sunday mornings.
