Are you at a point in your life where you find yourself standing in front of a door and hear someone calling to you? That is Christ standing there waiting for you to open the door, but the only handle on the door is on your side! It is your choice if you want to let Him in or not. He is always calling us into relationship with Him no matter how long it takes.
If you are an adult (18+) and are thinking about having a relationship with God, and have not been baptized, the RCIA process is what you are seeking. It will lead you, or someone you know, into a lifetime relationship with our Lord, to and through the Sacraments of the Church.
Or, if you are an adult (18+) who has been baptized, but have not completed your Sacraments of Initiation (Eucharist and Confirmation), the RCIA process is also for you.
If you would like information about our next available program please call Betty Farrell at 949.400.6875.
"Jesus said to them, 'I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.'" John 6:35
RCIA is a very important ministry of the Church. The letters stand for "Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults." It is a ministry that is as old as the Church, yet as new as Vatican II. It has been a part of the American Church since approval by the Bishops of America in 1981; it is supported by our Bishop and supported in every way by St. Nicholas Parish.
The great tasks of RCIA are to bring people to the Church:
