RCIA

Welcome!

Are you seeking answers to questions about the Catholic faith?

Have you considered joining the Catholic Church?

Are you an adult wanting to be baptized? Or are you a baptized Catholic and want to receive the sacraments of Eucharist or Confirmation?

We invite you to journey with us in RCIA.

How do I get started?

Contact Julie Hird, Director of Religious Education at faithformation@holyfamilycolumbus.com

How should I start my journey to the Catholic faith?

Begin your journey at the Mass. We invite you to attend any weekend or weekday (or both) Mass and pray with us as a parish community.

Do I attend classes?

Our RCIA classes are Tuesdays, 7:00-9:00 PM in St. Mary’s Hall beginning in September and continuing until after Easter.

Our classes cover a multitude of topics within the Catholic Church and as you journey through the classes, discover your readiness to becoming Catholic. Although there no “set” time to be baptized, receive the Eucharist or Confirmation, the traditional timeline begins in September and culminates at the Easter Vigil and Divine Mercy Sunday around the month of April.
