On April 3, 2021, during the Easter Vigil, Catie Turner, Brad Streett, and Sean Lucker were welcomed into the fullness of the Catholic Church! May God bless them, their sponsors and godparent as they continue to grow and walk in our Catholic faith.

Sean: St Mary’s has welcomed me with open arms. I have learned so much during my experience with RCIA. Being a part of the church has given me a feeling of peace and comfort. I would encourage anyone considering RCIA to go ahead and take the next step.

RCIA

RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) is a program of induction into the Catholic Church through the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist.   But more than that, RCIA is a faith journey designed to meet our fundamental spiritual needs as God’s children and to help us identify with and become a part of the faith community of Catholic believers.  The ultimate RCIA goal, to bring missionary discipleship to the world, carries out Vatican II’s vision of what the Church is today: the manifestation of Jesus Christ’s presence and grace at work in the world.
