R.C.I.A., which stands for "Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults," is the process whereby someone becomes a Catholic Christian.  It involves weekly instructional classes with others from September to May.  It is for (1) those who are not yet baptized, (2) those who are already baptized and Christian but are desirous of embracing the fullness of Christianity in the Catholic Faith, and (3) Catholics who, for whatever reasons, never received Confirmation and/or Holy Communion.  RCIA, therefore, is a journey into a relationship with God through Christ, an embracing of all God wants to teach and give you, a guided entrance into the Catholic Church, and a prepared reception of God's grace in the Sacraments.  See the following orientation document for more information:
