The RCIA program begins in September and ends in Pentecost - approximately 9 months. While this may seem like a long time, please remember that this is a journey of faith that not only involves learning the material, but also preparing your heart for a new beginning. The decision to become Catholic is a major decision and should not be something rushed into.
If I start RCIA class, do I have to become Catholic?
No. This is your journey and we are simply helping you along the way. You can walk away from the process at any time if you decide this is not for you.
