RCIA – Exploring the Faith – starts September

The Parish’s course for the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, “Exploring the Faith” starts on Tuesday 12th September 2017, running from 7 to 9pm every Tuesday.

The course is designed, primarily, for those who are thinking about becoming members of the Catholic Church, for those who want to know more about the Catholic faith but perhaps not become Catholic, and for existing Catholics who want to refresh their faith.

There are two sections of the course – the ‘Introduction to the Old Testament’ and ‘Teach Us to Pray’ – which we are throwing open as separate modules to any parishioner who wants to come to one or both of them without committing to the whole course. Those who do complete the whole course, and who wish to do so, will be received into full communion with Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil Mass, receiving, as appropriate, the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. The course is in four sections: the first three are designed progressively to bring people to their Reception; the fourth section, after Easter, is designed to smooth their introduction to life as a member of this Catholic parish.


This course runs 7-9pm on Tuesdays, at St Edmund’s Church Millwall, starting on Tuesday 12th September 2017, and is led by Chris Murray, Julia Voigt & Asha Anthony
