+Rite of Christian Initiation of
Adults (RCIA)

the
process by which adults are welcomed into full communion with the Catholic
church through baptism, eucharist, and/or confirmation. Opportunities are available for students and parishioners to sponsor

Confirmation Program

Closely related to
the RCIA program is the Adult Confirmation Program, which prepares adult

All college students
are welcome to join us every Wednesday evening during the NIU school year from

Monsignor Nelson, Fr. Addison, and

fellowship each week!
+Wednesday
Night Student Mass

Every
Wednesday Night students are invited to Newman for a mid-week Mass at
9:00 p.m. Students in the past have found this to be a great mid week
gathering and a chance to refocus their week on serving Christ while
being a college student! Don't miss out!
