An important part of the RCIA experience is introducing seekers to the parish faith community. If you are a baptized Catholic who has received all your Sacraments of Initiation and are practicing your Catholic faith, consider serving as a Sponsor to those who are interested in the Catholic Church.
RCIA Sponsor Orientation
Saturday, September 25, 2021
1:00 – 4:00 PM
Zoom Live
When you are walking on a path or going on a journey, it means so much to have someone who has already walked that road, to walk with you to…
- Point out things along the way that you may not have noticed on your own,
- Introduce you to the locals and their way of life,
- Share your excitement and
- Even offer encouragement when you get tired.
These are some of the same things RCIA Sponsors do as companions on this walk of Faith!
As Baptized Christians, we are all called to go and make disciples and as our parish prepares to welcome those people who want to become part of the Catholic Church, please consider joining us at our next workshop.
Father Pat will lead the workshop. It is an opportunity for you to learn more about the fundamentals of serving as an RCIA Sponsor and discern whether God is calling you to serve in this Ministry. As people appear who are interested in becoming Catholic, we want our parish to have Sponsors ready to walk with them on their journey.
Please see an RCIA team member at the back of the church to sign up for the workshop or contact us by e-mail to register at staugrcia@gmail.com.
