Rite of Christian Initiation for Children (RCIC)
A pastoral process for initiating new members into theChurch, leading them to knowledge of the truths of the Catholic Faith.
The process for a person to become a member of the Catholic Church, once they have passed the age of reason (Age 7), is through their participation in the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children (RCIC). RCIC is a distinct process in which individuals explore his/her inner longing to find a unique relationship with God.
This journey is for:
- Those who were never baptized.
- Those who were baptized in another Christian tradition but now seek reception into the full communion of the Catholic Church.
- Those who are Catholics by baptism and are now preparing for Confirmation and/or Eucharist.

Please note that due to the uniqueness of experiences and ages for individual RCIC candidates, each RCIC candidate will be handled on a case by case basis.
For information regarding RCIC please contact Mary Kohlhaas at kohlhaasm@stjohnnyb.org or by phone 651-633-1540 ext. 1234

Did you happen to stop in today and you are not sure why? Are you sitting in the pew each Sunday and intrigued by the Catholic Faith? Have you been coming with your family for years and need a safe place to ask questions? Are you one of the many Catholics who didn’t finish their initiation sacraments and still need to receive Eucharist or be Confirmed? Are you marrying or married to a Catholic and you just want to understand Catholicism better? We have an opportunity for you, to journey in faith with us, as we share together the richness of a relationship with Christ within the heart of the Catholic Church. We invite you to come and learn more about Christ and what the Church teaches and spend time with some of our faithful parish members. These sessions are a place to ask the difficult questions you may have about the Catholic Church.

The servant leadership model creates a structure that allows for greater participation and development of a more informed leadership. It creates a synergistic environment for growth for all participants. It creates the opportunity for all parish leaders to pray together for the people of St. John’s and the opportunity for more persons to become involved and become active in other St. John’s ministries.

This process is supported by the design of the monthly meeting format that incorporates prayer and sharing of a simple meal before the Commissions meetings and Pastoral Leadership Council meeting. The Commissions and the Pastoral Leadership Council work in partnership with staff to develop the vision, policies and programs that support the Parish mission.
Contact the parish office for more information (651) 633-8333 or stjohnsnb@pclink.com

Women of all ages are invited to come to the Circle and share their stories and lives so that we can journey together with God. We encourage and support one another through prayer, inspirational and informative speakers, worship, small group gatherings and social outreach.
