Welcome to the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children (RCIC) at Saint Joseph’s Polish Catholic Church, a vibrant and inclusive community dedicated to nurturing young believers.

Why Choose Saint Joseph’s Polish Catholic Church?

Our dedicated team of clergy, catechists, and volunteers are committed to providing a comprehensive spiritual education, ensuring that each child feels valued, loved, and supported along their faith journey.
Our Approach to the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Children is a process designed to prepare children aged 7 and above for the sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation. At Saint Joseph’s Polish Catholic Church, we recognize that faith formation is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and therefore, our RCIC program is tailored to meet the unique needs of each child.
Stage 1: Inquiry
During the initial stage of RCIC, children and their families are invited to explore the Catholic faith through inquiry sessions. These sessions offer an open and engaging space for children to ask questions, deepen their understanding of Catholic teachings, and discern their readiness for the sacraments.
Stage 2: Catechumenate
Upon expressing the desire to continue their faith journey, children enter the catechumenate stage. Here, they receive ongoing catechesis, participate in regular Masses, engage in prayer and reflection, and build relationships with fellow young believers. Our dedicated team of catechists provides guidance, support, and instruction, ensuring children are well-prepared for the sacraments.
Stage 3: Sacraments
The final stage of RCIC culminates in the reception of the sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation. Celebrated with great joy and reverence, these sacraments mark a significant milestone in a child's spiritual journey. Through the grace of these sacraments, children are welcomed into the fullness of the Catholic faith and are encouraged to continue growing in their relationship with Jesus Christ.
Community Involvement and Support
At Saint Joseph’s Polish Catholic Church, we foster a sense of community and belonging among our young members.
