This process is an adaptation of the RCIA process that adults enroll in when they want to become Catholic. The goals of the
RCIA-C are to help children discover their faith in God and to experience His love in their own lives through Mass, celebration of the sacraments, and the practice of prayer. These goals are achieved first and foremost within the support of the child's family and with the assistance of the catechists and others in ministry at Holy Family.

• One or more of them is age 7 or above and has yet to be baptized in the Catholic Faith and/or has yet to receive  First Reconciliation and/or First Holy Communion.
• Your child is a second grader (or older), has been baptized in another denomination, and now wants to enter the Catholic Church.
