RCIA/RCIC

RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults


Primarily intended to support adults thinking of joining the Church, this course is also open to practising Catholics who would enjoy learning more about their faith in this way.

During a course of friendly sessions, we discuss all aspects of our faith and share how God has helped us on our own individual journeys. 

For some, this course may lead to full membership of the Catholic Church through the Sacraments. For others, it may just be a step along the way. This course will provide something new for everyone to think about. Come and join us.

Our current RCIA Course for both parishes will begin on Monday 9th September 2024 at 7:30 pm in the Assumption Church Hall, Beeston (Behind the church, on Foster Avenue). This will be an initial meeting to discuss the outline and format of the course for those who are looking to be Received into the Church next Easter. All welcome. If you have any questions or would like any further information please speak to me. – Fr Christopher


RCIC - Rite of Christian Initiation of Children 


RCIC is open to all children between the ages of 8-15, unbaptized or baptized. These classes are designed to educate children in the Catholic faith and prepare them for the sacraments to be received at the Easter Vigil. Whether your family is just entering the Church, returning to the practice of the Catholic faith, or delayed your child’s sacramental preparation, all are welcome.
