RCIA is open year-round – God’s grace is at work 24/7/365. By that we mean that 24 hours a day/7 days a week/365 days a year God is calling people to faith and working in our lives! We don’t just start in September and end at Easter. The process of Christian initiation is open all-year-round; welcoming those who seek the living God. In addition, the process of initiation must be an individual process as the needs and desires of each seeker are unique. Yet, one thing that’s the same for each seeker is that the process of initiation is always within the context of our St. Ben’s community. The Christian community is key! If you are a seeker and looking for a Christian community or if God is calling you to accompany a seeker on the journey of faith, please contact Rita at rita@stbenedictth.org or call the parish office, 812.232.8421, ext. 112.
Accompanying those on the Journey of Faith – Pope Francis talks alot about the importance of accompaniment. In the new Directory for Catechesis, he says that one of the most important tasks of a catechist is to accompany others on the journey of faith. We thank our initiation catechists who accompany those who are the journey toward Baptism and those who are preparing for membership in the Catholic Church. May God continue
to pour out the Holy Spirit on our initiation ministry catechists:
