RCIA
School has started and summer is coming to an end, that means that The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) classes will begin soon. If you are interested in attending our sessions or know of someone who is thinking about learning more about the Church of Jesus, please let us know. You can contact us by calling the St. James, Rockford office or let Father know after any of the Masses. Currently, there has not been a day or time scheduled. We are trying to get an idea of what day and time would be best for those interested. Also, we will be combining our instruction classes with St. Peter’s with Bob Mitchison, who is a Deacon at St. Pete’s. Those of you who are considering attending please provide your name and a phone number so we can contact you to plan the day and time for the classes. Thank you and God Bless.
