THE SHRINE CHURCH

If so, then the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the right step for you to take. The RCIA is a process that consists of a combination of participation at Sunday Mass and instruction on the teachings and customs of the Roman Catholic Church. RCIA is also for baptized Catholics who have not received both First Holy Communion and Confirmation. The sessions meet once a week on Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. in the Rectory. Adults that have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation are also invited to join our sessions. If you are seriously thinking of entering this program, please call the Rectory at 718-384-0223 and ask for Rosemarie Walsh.
