The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process through which interested adults and older teenagers are introduced to the Roman Catholic faith and way of life. Those who are not baptized or are baptized in a different faith tradition and wish to inquire about becoming part of the Roman Catholic Church are invited to participate. Catholics who have been baptized but have not completed the Sacraments of Initiation, i.e. First Communion and Confirmation, are also invited to participate.

Younger children can be accommodated in a separate program (RCIC). Classes are held from October through to Easter, culminating at the Easter Vigil where the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First Communion are celebrated.
