Some of our children may be new to the parish and for a variety of reasons may need to receive sacraments other than at the designated grade levels. Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) is a process for children 7 years of age or older. Immediate preparations are now underway for our CMI sessions to begin in October.

We offer an opportunity for children over 7 to come together in a small group to learn more about our faith. Sessions focus on the teachings and experiences of Church, and prepare individuals to celebrate the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist during the Easter season. You are welcome to participate in the process with your questions, your insights, and your faith story in a warm accepting setting.

Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) is a special parish process for families with children, Grades 3 through 8 who have not participated religious education. Classes begin on October 20, 2019.

Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) is a special parish process for families with older children, grades 3rd through 8th Who have never been baptized and are interested in becoming Catholic; Who were baptized in another denomination and are considering becoming Catholic; Who have been baptized Roman Catholic but have received little or no formal religious education and have not received the sacraments of Eucharist or Confirmation.

Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) is a family centered program.  If you wish to have your child initiated (receive the sacraments of baptism, confirmation, Eucharist) into the Catholic Church, but have not been actively practicing and wish to resume practicing, this process would be a great place for your family to journey together.

The Catechumenate for Children/Teens, which is an Adaptation of the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (R.C.I.A.), is the process by which unbaptized young people of the age of reason come into The Church.

Tomorrow we celebrate the Holy Spirit’s coming upon the disciples of Jesus. They were "filled with the Holy Spirit" and never again would be content to keep their faith to themselves. They were all fired up by the Spirit to share the Good News with everyone. At the 9:00 AM Mass on June 9th we will be commissioning the Newly Baptized, Newly Received, those in RCIA and CMI.

This process allows families with children to join other families who are seeking to become closer to God. St. Hubert ministers to the whole family as their children journey toward Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist or full reception into the Catholic Church. We will be starting sessions in October.

FACING EVIL: The Power of Jesus Christ Helps Us Overcome It.

Do you know what it looks like to be an everyday disciple of Jesus? On Sunday, March 10, the adults and children in the RCIA and CMI process—our Catechumens and Candidates requested the parish’s approval to receive the Easter sacraments. Please continue to pray for them all during this Lenten Season, a “Period of Purification and Enlightenment.”

Those present for the 9:00 liturgy on Sunday, March 10 will participate with the RCIA and CMI candidates and catechumens in a significant step in their conversion journey: the Rite of Sending for Election and Continuing Conversion. In this ritual, having heard the testimony of the sponsors, RCIA and CMI team members, and the Faith Community of St. Hubert, we will send the candidates and catechumens to these rites.

The birth of the Christ Child brings joy to our lives this Christmas Season. Even if we have been away from the Church, God is continually inviting us to dwell in his love and presence. Have you and your family been "away" from the Catholic Church? Is your family trying to find its way back? If so—then Children’s Ministry of Initiation (CMI) can help.

This is the first of the public ritual celebrated in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) process.
