Adult Faith Formation

Our parish offers various bible study classes, women's and men's retreats throughout the year for adults seeking to further their understanding of the faith.  

We host various events throughout the year to bring the community together as a whole. Some of these events include our Sunday Coffee and Donuts, our parish festival and our monthly Adult Dinner Socials.

Volunteers are always needed to help host each of these events.  For more information or to become more involved in sharing your time, talent and treasure, please contact the parish office at 972.542.4667 ext. 110 
 

The RCIA, which stands for Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is a process through which non-baptized men and women enter the Catholic Church. It includes several stages marked by study, prayer and rites at Mass. Participants in the RCIA are known as catechumens. They undergo a process of conversion as they study the Gospel, profess faith in Jesus and the Catholic Church, and receive the sacraments of baptism, confirmation and Holy Eucharist. The RCIA process follows the ancient practice of the church and was restored by the Second Vatican Council as the normal way adults prepare for baptism.

The three sacraments of Christian initiation - Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist - closely combine to bring us, the faithful of Christ, to his full stature and to enable us to carry out the mission of the entire people of God in the Church and in the world.

If a person has been baptized in another Christian tradition, the initiation process prepares you to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church by celebrating the sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist or Holy Communion.

RCIA classes will be held at St. Michael's in both English and Spanish every Thursday evening 7:00-8:30pm from September 13, 2018 until April 26, 2019.  For more information please contact either Deacon Sid Little at deaconsid@stmichaelmckinney.org or Deacon Juan Jorge Hernandez at deaconjuan@stmichaelmckinney.org.
