We wish to extend the warmest of welcomes to our newest adult members of the Catholic faith and of Nativity of Our Lord! Read their personal statements of their faith journeys through our Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) program. Many thanks to all for your support and prayers for our newest members!
Each year, the Catholic Church in the United States designates this third Sunday in September as Catechetical Sunday. It is a day to celebrate and pray for the Church’s mission to teach the Gospel to all people.
I am Mahalia Marcelin, a servant of the Lord, serving as your Director of Faith Formation. It is an honor to serve Christ with you at Nativity of Our Lord.
by Katie Schaitberger, Director of Faith Formation
We are blessed to have four individuals prayerfully discerning in our RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) process. Please pray for each of our Elect and Candidates as they make their final steps towards Easter.
Our Director of Faith Formation, Katie Schaitberger, has decided to step down from her position, as she has accepted another position in ministry elsewhere.
On the occasion of his retirement, Communications Director Isaac Huss asked Faith Formation Director Randy Mueller to reflect upon his time at Nativity of Our Lord.
It has been my personal pleasure to work with Randy for the past decade or so as he has led some of the most important parts of our mission here at Nativity.
Please pray for our 16 catechumens and candidates as they seek deeper conversion to Christ and his Church, and may their collective enthusiasm and desire for the sacraments encourage us all.
Do you or someone you know desire to become a Catholic or learn more about the process? Nativity’s RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) program begins on September 11.
Nativity has partnered with FORMED, a digital platform offered by the St. Augustine Institute that will give each one of us unlimited access to study programs, feature films, audio presentations, and eBooks.
We would like to extend our congratulations to our Baptized, Confirmed, and Newly Professed Adult Catholics who were received into the Church during our Easter Vigil celebration.
