What Is The RCIC Program

RCIC stands for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Children, the Catholic process for children aged 7-17 who are not baptised and wish to become members of the Church.

It's a program consisting of four sessions; offering spiritual formation that includes prayer, study, and community participation, preparing for the Sacraments of Baptism.

The process is for school-aged children who were either not baptised or baptised in another Christian tradition and want to become Catholic. 

It is essential to attend four Baptism Preparation sessions prior to the Baptism itself. During these sessions, you will not only be prepared for the Sacrament of Baptism, you will also gain comprehensive information and a thorough understanding of the process.‍

The RCIC (Rite of Christian Initiation of Children) Sessions for children who are aged 7 years plus are held at
Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Wodonga. please contact the Parish Centre for further information.
