Oportunities for retreat experiences are presented, where teens will meet and be part of the larger Catholic teen membership in our area and Diocese. Adult Religious Education Adult instruction is offerred during a 6-week session for those who have not yet received Confirmation, but have been Baptized and received the First Communion and made their First Reconciliation. Adults from other faiths who wish to become Catholic are asked to participate in a special journey which culminates in their full reception into the Church, possibly at the Easter Vigil. However, this may be done at any Liturgy at the discretion and recommendation of our Pastor. Adults who have never been Baptized enter a special process called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.
Unbaptized children are also part of the same process but are placed with others of similar age.
The RCIA is a team effort. First Communion is received the beginning of May, also in grade 2. Confirmation is generally administered in late April, early May in grade 8. Grades given are considered the current norm in the Diocese of Orlando. However, children of other ages or grades may receive the Sacraments as circumstances warrant.
