What is RCIA

The R.C.I.A. process at St. Ann Catholic Church begins in the fall and builds towards a crescendo on the night before Easter when those on the R.C.I.A. journey enter the Catholic Church and receive the Sacraments of Initiation. This four-step journey begins with a "Come and See" Inquiry period during which candidates ask questions and learn about the basic beliefs of the Catholic Church.

While R.C.I.A. is an intense overview of Catholic beliefs and practices, during its opening months candidates are by no means required to make a firm commitment to enter into the Catholic Church. The first step is to help you discern by presenting the Faith to you and helping answer any questions you might have.

If you would like more information about R.C.I.A., please do not hesitate to contact our pastor, Fr. Craig Maxim. 

If you feel ready to begin the process, take a few minutes to fill out our
online registration form.

If you are a confirmed, practicing adult Catholic and would like to explore volunteering with the RCIA ministry, please visit our RCIA Volunteer Opportunities page to learn more and register.
