Interested in becoming Catholic or learning more about the Catholic faith?

Interested in becoming Catholic or learning more about the Catholic faith?

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the process by which the Catholic Church welcomes new members into its midst or completes the process of Christian initiation. This process involves receiving 1 or all 3 sacraments of initiation which include Baptism, Holy Eucharist and Confirmation.

During the process of initiation, a person grows in knowledge of the teachings of the Catholic Church, explores the meaning of the Scriptures for daily life, develops friendships with members of the parish community, learns to pray and worship in the Catholic tradition and discovers the joy of serving others.

If you are interested in becoming Catholic or learning more about the Catholic faith, please contact the parish office at (920) 788-9061 and ask for Deacon Bruce Corey and he will provide you with more more information. Lessons are set to begin the second week of September 2022.
