Have you ever felt something was missing in your life, but you just weren't sure what it was?
Have you ever wondered if God exists, and if so, how he fits in your life?
Maybe you have looked at the world around you and thought, "Is this all there is?"
The Catholic Church has a process called The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) which is available to anyone seeking to explore questions about God, faith and living life as a Catholic.
What do Catholics believe?
Do they worship Mary?
Why do they confess their sins to a priest?
Are they a biblical Church?
All of these questions and more are addressed during the RCIA process. Our sessions provide inquirers plenty of time for asking questions as we discuss various topics. We take things slow, respecting each person's unique faith journey as we move through a series of steps and rituals that are rich with meaning, symbols and, of course, the power of the Holy Spirit!
There is absolutely NO PRESSURE to become Catholic when going through RCIA! Interested observers are welcome to just sit in on our sessions and will not be pressured to tell their story or give personal information.
A call to our parish will put you in touch with our Pastor, Fr. Anthony Strouse, or with our Director of Adult Faith Formation, Janet Cassidy. You will be invited in for a friendly conversation and you will be given a greater explanation of the process at that time.
We hope you will contact our parish office (810) 235-8574 (Janet is Extension 319) or email Janet at janetcassidy@flintcatholic.org for more information.
We look forward to hearing from you!
