Do you desire to share your Catholic faith? Do you feel called to walk with people on their spiritual journey? The St. Hubert Community invites you to be a sponsor companion for those coming into the Catholic Church! There is no level of knowledge required! As long as you’re a practicing, fully initiated Catholic you’re in!

Every year adults are welcomed into the Catholic Community through RCIA. It is a learning and loving process in which conversion of the heart brings you to Jesus Christ, who is our Lord and Savior. This process will present the Catholic faith journey in an open and comfortable environment. Participants in past RCIA classes have come from many different backgrounds, yet all have a common interest in learning about the Catholic Faith. 

Please send all unavailable dates for the months of September through November to Jackie Green no later than August 6th.

Sponsors for our RCIA catechumens and candidates participate in the Church's ministry by welcoming new members. To be a sponsor means to serve as a companion for the journey of faith, offering guidance, and sharing life's experiences. Sponsors find their own faith life enriched by the RCIA process.

The RCIA is for anyone who is thinking about joining the Catholic Church. This includes people who were never baptized and those who have been baptized in other Christian churches. It includes people who have grown up with some or much religious instruction as well as people who have had no religious upbringing. Those who take part in RICA might be single people, spouses of Catholics. and sometimes entire families. RCIA is also for those who have been baptized as Catholics, but did not complete their initiation with First Communion and/or Confirmation.

Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) meets on Sunday Mornings.

It is open to both the un-baptized and to those who were baptized in the Catholic Church, but have missed the study and sacramental preparation offered in early grade school. It is also open to those baptized in other traditions. Regular attendance of both the child and at least one parent is expected.
