Interested in becoming a Catholic?  Not baptised?   Baptised in another faith? The RCIA Programme (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) will begin in the autumn. RCIA is the process by which adults are received into the Catholic Church.  The programme of catechesis and instruction prepares adults for the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist, usually celebrated at the Easter Vigil.  Please speak to Fr. Mackle or Monsignor Ryan if you have any questions about receiving the Sacraments as an adult, or if you would like to know more about RCIA and the Catholic faith.

Recent Talk on Assisted Suicide -  The recent talk by John Deighan on the real dangers of assisted suicide was very informative and touched upon many of the issues around this subject.

More information will be provided after the summer holidays. Thanks again to all those who attended John’s talk in the Upper Hall.
