The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the process whereby adults are initiated into full communion with the Catholic Church. The R.C.I.A. is for:

• those who were baptized in other faith traditions but now feel called to become Catholic.
• those who have never been baptized or do not belong to a faith tradition but now feel called to become Catholic.
• those who were baptized Catholic but never received Confirmation and First Holy Communion.
• those who have received both Catholic baptism and First Holy Communion but were never Confirmed.
