There are several steps
and stages in the process of the RCIA. These allow you to enter more
fully into the community of the parish, allowing you to get to know the parish
and the parishioners to know you.
Becoming a Catholic is a big step; it is literally a life changing
experience, and one which shouldn’t be entered into lightly.
Like any family, it is always exciting and a great privilege to
have new members arriving, thus there is no doubt that you are welcome,
but this needs to be something that you believe God is calling you to,
and should also be something that you desire for yourself as well.
The process seems long and perhaps even complicated, but it really
is a great joy. It will undoubtedly be a special time in your spiritual
life. You will be invited to join a group of people on a similar journey
to your own. Under the
guidance of our RCIA Team you will meet regularly for reflection,
education about our Catholic teachings and practices, to share your life
stories and to enjoy each other's company.
The journey begins with an open Enquiry Night held mid year.
The RCIA process begins in August and last till the Easter of the
following year.
The next RCIA Information Night will be on
Wednesday 25th June, 2008 at 7.30pm in the Parish Office.
If you are interested
please contact the Parish Secretary.
