EXCERPT:
“I made the choice to begin R.C.I.A {Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults} with my husband in September. RCIA is a 9-month long process of learning about Christ and the Church which culminates with being received into the Church and receiving Baptism, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation at Easter Vigil. Yes, I was a little shocked to learn that it was such a long process. But now I understand why. Becoming Catholic is a major decision that must affect every single area of your life. It can’t be based purely on an emotional decision; you are joining the Church that Christ himself began. It is kind of a big deal that requires mental and spiritual preparation. It isn’t to be taken lightly.” – Heather Bowen
