Holy Eucharist and Confirmation
TEEN

Teenagers need to be taught to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ. The process that assists parents in teaching their teenagers to follow Christ is called the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults - RCIA. This process requires from your child to complete a year of Religious Education in the applicable grade of study. Then, upon successful completion, the teen will enter the RCIA process the following year. At the end of these sessions, your child will receive the two (2) remaining Christian Initiation Sacraments - Confirmation and Holy Eucharist - at the next Easter Vigil Liturgy on Holy Saturday.

What are the Goals of RCIA?
(i) ​To develop a relationship with Jesus Christ
(ii) To have a prayer life with God and one’s family
(iii) To know the Bible, the Sacraments, and the teachings of the Catholic Faith
(iv) To be fully prepared to receive the Sacraments of Christian Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Eucharist (Communion)

​What is the Role of Parents, Grandparents, and Family in this Process?
Family involvement is very important. Children cannot solely learn to be patient, generous, humble, and prayerful from a class that meets once a week—they need parents, grandparents, or godparents who live and pray the faith. Parents are responsible for leading their children in daily prayer at home and attending Mass weekly.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church states,
“The family is the community in which, from childhood, one can learn moral values, begin to honor God, and make good use of freedom.”

The Church community assists you as parents in your commitment to bring your child up in the Catholic Christian faith. While we will be teaching your children at Corpus Christi, parents remain the primary teachers.
