=== (4) Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) and Course in the Fundamentals of the Catholic Faith ===
Fr. Moloney will be offering a class in the fundamentals of the Catholic faith that will cover everything from the Trinity to Church history to the Sacraments, prayer, and the moral life. It is meant to be both a high-level introduction to the faith appropriate for interested non-Catholics, and a serious review of the faith for those who are Catholics. It is required for those who want to enter the Church. Classes will start in early October and run for the rest of the year.
* For those interested in becoming Catholic, being Baptized, receiving First Communion, or being Confirmed, please come to an organizational meeting on Sunday, October 1, at 2:30 PM in W11 / SDR We will discuss the process of receiving these sacraments, and coordinate future meetings. Bring a sponsor or friend if you'd like. If you haven't done so already, also please reach out to Fr. Moloney to set up a time to talk individually (dmoloney at mit.edu<mailto:dmoloney at mit.edu>).
