WHAT IS RCIA?

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is not just a programme; it is a journey. It is a journey that one makes with the Catholic community in search of God. It is open both to Catholics and non-Catholics.

For Catholics, it is an excellent opportunity to rediscover the beauty and the heritage of their own faith. As for non-Catholics, RCIA presents to them an in-depth study of the Catholic faith with no obligation to be baptised. Baptism is a deeply personal commitment to Jesus and so no one will be forced into baptism. It is a free and personal decision.

Some of the topics include God, Father, Trinity, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Mary, Communion of Saints, Popes, Church Councils, Church History, Bible, Sacraments and many more. There will also be days of prayer and retreat. And, of course, there will be days of fun and fellowship.

After RCIA, your life will never be the same again. Come! Sign up IMMEDIATELY! Better still, bring a friend along. Catholics and non-Catholics – all are welcome!

“Go, therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matt 28:19
