Introduction

Welcome to St Jude Redmond - Becoming Catholic. Renton Community Church is delighted to guide you on this incredible journey of faith. Whether you are new to Catholicism or seeking to deepen your understanding and commitment, our community is here to support and empower you.

Discover the Joy of Catholicism

At St Jude Redmond, we believe that embracing Catholicism can bring immeasurable joy and fulfillment to your life. Our rich traditions, sacraments, and teachings have nourished countless souls throughout history. By becoming Catholic, you are joining a global family that shares a deep love for God and others.

Understanding the Process

The process of becoming Catholic, also known as the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA), is designed to foster spiritual growth and discernment. It encompasses several stages that allow individuals to explore Catholic teachings, engage in community, and prepare for the sacraments of initiation – Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist.

Stage 1: Inquiry

During the inquiry stage, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn about the foundations of Catholicism. Our community will provide you with resources, support, and a safe space to explore your faith journey.

Stage 2: Catechumenate

Once you make the decision to pursue Catholicism, you will enter the catechumenate stage. Here, you will deepen your understanding of Catholic teachings through faith formation classes, scripture studies, and participation in our vibrant community.

Stage 3: Purification and Enlightenment

This stage typically takes place during the season of Lent. It is a time for introspection, self-reflection, and preparation for the sacraments of initiation. Through prayer, fasting, and spiritual exercises, you will seek to purify your heart and fully embrace the Catholic faith.

Stage 4: Sacraments of Initiation

During the Easter Vigil, the most solemn liturgical celebration of the year, you will receive the sacraments of initiation - Baptism (if not previously baptized), Confirmation, and Eucharist. This joyous occasion marks your full entry into the Catholic Church.

Stage 5: Mystagogy

After receiving the sacraments, the mystagogy stage focuses on deepening your understanding of the sacraments and living out the Catholic faith in everyday life. It is a time of continued learning, spiritual growth, and integration into the Catholic community.
