Become Catholic

- Become Catholic

"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heat is restless until it rests in You." - St. Augustine
"The desire for God is written in the human heart, because man is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw man to himself. Only in God will [we] find the truth and happiness [we] never [stop] searching for" CCC 27
While many are welcomed into the church as infants, others come to know God and desire to join or enter full communion with His Holy Catholic Church later in life.

For such persons, the church has a process of initiation called the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA). This process involves attending weekly classes to prepare for the reception of the sacraments at the Easter Vigil Mass and undergoing the Rite of Election and spiritual purification during Lent.

These classes are offered to anyone who feels called to the Catholic faith—those who have never been baptized as Christians, those who have been baptized in another Christian faith and are now interested in the Catholic church, and those who have been baptized in the Catholic church but have not received the sacraments of the Eucharist and Confirmation—everyone is welcome!
Have questions? Want to get a feel for what classes will be like? Want to hear how RCIA has changed past initiates' lives? Then come to our informational session, offered on Saturdays, May 11, June 8, and July 20 at 1 p.m. in the Lower Level of the Nativity of Mary Ministry Center!

To register your interest in becoming Catholic, please complete the form below! Please note that your response is confidential and is shared only with the Coordinator of Faith Formation, RCIA Coordinator, and Pastor.

Classes are on Tuesdays from 6-7 p.m. beginning August 27
If you have any questions about becoming Catholic, please email Cameron Engelbrecht at [email protected].
