Each year, tens of thousands of men and women in the United States are received into the Catholic Church through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) on Holy Saturday.
St. Bernard’s partners with St. Mary’s in Simsbury with RCIA classes on Monday evenings which begin in September and culminate in catechumens being received into full communion with the Church as part of the Holy Saturday liturgy.
Learn more about RCIA at the U.S. Council of Catholic Bishops website.
If you are an adult interested in learning more about the Catholic faith, please contact Jean Hamilton, the RCIA coordinator at St. Mary’s through Sue Alamed at St. Bernard’s (860)658-5142.
