The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life. "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch." CCC 1324

If you are 18 years old and up and ready to take the next step on your journey of faith, we invite you to join our Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults process. This step-by-step process by which adults are initiated, or brought into the Catholic Church, holds sessions twice a week. These sessions are open to anyone wishing to join the Catholic Church through baptism or the profession of faith, or anyone who wishes to complete the Christian Initiation by receiving the Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist. Practicing Catholics who wish to enrich their faith are also invited. Additionally, there are opportunities to sponsor candidates who are on their journey of faith.
