RCIA
Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
The RCIA process will begin this Fall!
What is the RCIA?
The RCIA is a process by which non-Catholic adults, or Catholic adults who did not receive all the Sacraments of Initiation, learn about the Catholic Faith and gradually become full members. Any adult in one of these categories who would like to begin the journey in preparation for the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist) should call Deacon Phil Mills, Jr. at the REctory office 631-842-5211, extension 29.
If you know someone who has not been Baptized or who has not received all the sacraments of Initiation, please invite them to these sessions.
Matrimony
Please contact a priest or deacon at least six months prior to your wedding date and before finalizing reception plans. Couples will need to attend an approved program of marriage preparation. Contact the parish office at (631) 842-5211 or (631) 608-4780 for more information. Click here to print information about the PreCana Course and Registration.
In addition, each couple will be participating in the FOCCUS program with a facilitator prior to the date of the group session. This program includes taking an “inventory” of where you are as a couple by each of you answering a series of questions online. You will then meet with a facilitator to discuss any issues you may want to resolve. For more information, you can go to foccusinc.com or call the parish office to be put in touch with a facilitator.
Holy Orders
The privilege of serving God’s people as a priest, permanent deacon, religious sister or brother is personally fulfilling and spiritually exciting. Anyone who feels they might be interested in the priesthood, diaconate or religious life should speak to a parish priest.
Anointing of the Sick
Anointing of the Sick is administered on the first Saturday of every month after the 8:00am Mass and Novena prayers. If you know you will be entering the hospital for elective surgery, it is appropriate and recommended to receive the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick before entering the hospital. Simply ask one of the parish priests to give you the sacrament before admission. In the case of any emergency, please call the Rectory at (631) 842-5211.
