Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA)

The RCIA Journey in Faith is looking for parishioners who would like to serve as sponsors for our inquirers. This requires no special training -- just a willingness to support your assigned inquirer and share your own faith story. If you are interested, contact Jeremy Woollen (240) 246-4370.

RCIA invites our fellow parishioners to "DO THE WALK" and join our inquirers as they walk the journey in faith this year.

September - April 

A Journey of Faith
“Lord, When You Came to the Seashore”

Meetings are held on Thursdays, 7 to 9pm 
 In the Church Library (Church basement) 
 

What is it?

The Journey-in-Faith is Saint John Vianney’s RCIA program, the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults.

Who is it for?

It is for those who are not part of the Catholic Christian Faith who would like to investigate its teachings in a relaxed friendly atmosphere.

It is for those who would like to explore the Catholic Christian Church, without commitment, but with the possibility of entering into full communion with us at Easter.

RCIA is a program for those adult Catholic Christians who have not completed all their Sacraments as a preparation to enter into a deeper relationship with God through the Church.

Who are the lecturers?

Under the leadership of Father John Benson, the Journey-in-Faith is a program coordinated by a team of lay people, such as yourself, who invite you to come and journey with us on a path that is both spiritually stimulating and pleasurable.

When does it meet?

Meetings are held every Thursday at 7PM in either the Columbus Room or Church Library in the Church basement.

Whom do I contact?
