Do you know a relative, friend, or co-worker who is not Catholic and has asked you about your Catholic faith? Do you feel that someone you know is seeking to find the Lord in their life? Is there an adult in your family who is baptized Catholic but hasn't yet made his or her other sacraments of initiation?  Encourage them to "Seek the Lord while He may be found; call to Him, while He is still near." The call to conversion and holiness begins with an inquiry and information session -- a no obligation, free introductory offer about the Catholic Faith.     The clergy of St. Ann Parish are happy to help individuals inquire about the Catholic Faith, by leading the sessions through the process called: "The ORDER of Christian Initiation of Adults (formerly RCIA).  It meets over a period of six months, once a week (off for Thanksgiving and Christmas) beginning Wednesday, September 27th through March 27th at 6:30 PM in the school Conference Room A.  In these sessions, we will explain the faith, and help inquirers every step of the way, guiding them to discern the possibility of entering the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil on March 30, 2024. 

Individuals are welcome to travel on their own or with a group on a Krapf bus.  We will meet up with Bishop Koenig and other Pilgrims from the Diocese of Wilmington at the National Shrine at 10:15am for opening prayer.  

There is an online Baptism PREP class required if you have not taken a class within the last two years.  Just visit the “Ascension Press” website and look for “Belonging”.  The cost for the class is $9.95.  Once you have taken the class, we can get you on our baptism calendar. Currently, we are scheduling baptisms one each Sunday after the 10:30am mass.
