Our Catholic Initiation programs are open to all adults. The initiation process is specifically designed for those needing initiation sacraments or interested in becoming Catholic, as well as those returning to Catholic faith practices.
Catholic Initiation is primarily a journey of faith:
- From the awareness of stirring of faith and curiosity within one's heart
- through all those stages of asking and seeking, through beginning involvement with Christian/Catholic people
- through hearing the Gospel proclaimed and by faithful reflection and prayer on this Word of God
- through study and discussion about the Catholic experience
- through doubts and hesitations
- through involvement in the works of charity and justice with those already committed to the catholic way of life
- through discernment of God's call for them as individuals
- through the steps of commitment
- through the sacraments of initiation (baptism, confirmation, and eucharist) to a life of faith, love, and justice lived in communion with Catholics throughout the world.
You do not go on this journey of faith alone. You are accompanied by a sponsor who walks with you and is there to support you along the way. .
