RCIA Inquiry
(Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults)
The RCIA is a process for those considering becoming Catholic, specifically:
•
For those who are not baptized and are in the process of making a
decision to become Catholic
•
For those who were baptized and are in another faith, yet are
thinking of becoming Catholic
•
For those who were baptized Roman Catholic and have not received
the Eucharist or Confirmation
The process is designed to assist those interested in Catholicism,
to learn about our faith, our traditions, and celebrations. Each
person is invited to reflect on his or her own relationship with
God and the faith community. We journey though this process
assisting each other in our response to God’s call.
If you or someone you know is interested in
the RCIA, please call the Religious Education
Office (773) 286-1939 for more information.
School Supplies Needed
It’s time to get school supplies again, and we hope
to help the food pantry families gather supplies
for their children. There are bins at the church
entrance into which you can put paper, notebooks, pencils, crayons, rules, and backpacks.
If you can donate, please do. We
will be picking these up and
distributing them until the
middle of September.
Thank you so much!
