RCIA and Adult Confirmation

The Santiago Catholic community believes strongly in Matthew 25:31-46, “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.” The journey to full inclusion in the Catholic Christian tradition incorporates this scripture into its very core. The journey includes understanding and celebrating centuries old Christian traditions, reflections on the Gospel and how they apply today and profound community support and prayer.

ADULT Confirmation

In the “Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is ‘sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit’ and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ. (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops).” Confirmation is the sacrament that deepens our baptismal life by receiving a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit giving us the strength and determination to practice our Catholic faith in all aspect of our lives. This program is a 7-week course for individuals aged 19 and older who have been baptized and received their First Communion. The program begins in April and the participants are confirmed on Pentecost Sunday.
