Sacraments

The Sacraments are the lifeblood of the Church. "The liturgical life of the Church revolves around the sacraments, with Eucharist as the center. The sacraments are signs of grace, instituted by Christ and given to the Church, by which divine life is given to us and celebrated. The Church celebrates seven sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony." National Directory for Catechesis, US Conference of Catholic Bishops, 2005

Sacraments of Initiation

RCIC - Sacraments of Initiation for Older Children - This program is for older children who have not yet completed or received sacraments of initiation. Registration is required and participation in class is required. RCIC Calendar

Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults - The RCIA is that process that welcomes adults wanting to investigate the Life of the Catholic Church. It includes those who have never been baptized, those who have come to us from other Christian faith traditions, and those baptized Catholics who desire to prepare for Eucharist and Confirmation.

Adult Confirmation - The Adult Confirmation program assists persons 19 years of age and older to prepare for the affirmation and commitment to the faith asked of a fully alive adult Catholic member of the Church.
