Christian Initiation for Adults
It begins with an awareness … or stirring in one’s heart for something more. It could be a curiosity or a sense of longing for fulfillment. Maybe it’s God calling you to explore the life of faith, love, and justice within the community of the Catholic Church …
Are you interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith?
Are you being called to the Catholic Church? Do you have questions about what Catholics believe? Whether you are just curious or already feel a deep hunger for communion with our Lord and His Church, Christian Initiation for Adults is for you! You do not make any commitment or obligation by inquiring about Catholicism or beginning the Christian initiation process. Classes will be on Tuesday nights at 6 PM in the St Joseph Catholic Church Social Hall. We have ongoing classes from September through May, so you are never “too late” to get started!

The Catholic Church always welcomes new members into its community. Christian Initiation for Adults is the program in which interested adults may explore Catholicism over time in a friendly, relaxed environment, and eventually enter into the Catholic faith.
Christian Initiation is a special time set aside to grow in our understanding of ourselves and our faith, to share stories of our encounters with God, and to build community relationships. Weekly meetings provide an opportunity for prayer, discussion, and reflection. These meetings, together with the experience of worshipping at St. Joseph Church, can help you find your spiritual home.
We invite you to grow with us as a people of faith in the Roman Catholic tradition. Come and see!
