Sometimes being Catholic is challenging. I have found that it is more difficult when we do not understand the richness that underlies our Faith Tradition.
Today, I invite you to consider joining me, beginning in September, for an opportunity to grow in an awareness of the beauty of our Catholic Faith through a consideration of a variety of topics. For some, these ‘classes’ are part of the Catholic Church’s way of initiating new members into the faith and for others it is an opportunity to strengthen the faith of those who are seeking to grow in their relationship with God. The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (commonly known as R.C.I.A.), will also help adults become familiar with Catholic teachings and practices, get acquainted with people of the parish, and get involved in service within the parish or the wider community.
It is an opportunity:
** For those who have not been baptized.
** For those who have been baptized, but have little affiliation with, and/or training in the Catholic religion.
** For those Catholics and others who want to learn and ask questions about the Catholic faith.
** For those who are searching.
Through weekly gatherings, beginning Fall 2023, those attending gain a deeper appreciation and understanding of the Catholic faith, tradition, rituals, and prayer life. I ask you to consider joining us this year and to consider inviting others. Please check a future bulletin for a schedule to be posted.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call and we will try to answer any questions you may have. 609-390-0664.
