Order of Christian Initiation for Children and Adults                                                       RCIA is a structured process meeting the needs of the people on the journey of initiation into or conversion to the Catholic faith.  The RCIA Team, which is composed of volunteer parishioners and parish staff, provides catechesis to the candidates and catechumens.  Sponsors journey one on one with the Catechumens and Candidates.  Volunteers can also provide refreshments for the sessions or babysitting services for the catechumen, candidates, and their sponsors. Spouses and other interested parishioners are welcome to attend the sessions.  RCIA is a year round activity.  Inquirers can be welcomed at any time of the year.

Welcoming Committee                                                                                                        A group of parishioners makes it their special concern to make new members feel welcome and familiarize them with the various committees and activities that Blessed Sacrament Church has available to them.  This group greets and registers persons wishing to become Blessed Sacrament parishioners on the third Saturday/Sunday of the month after all the liturgies.

Parish Newsletter                                                                                                              The newsletter staff consists of an editor, writers, photographers, proofreaders and layout helpers to assemble and mail information and news of the parish three to four times a year.  It highlights activities and accomplishments of the parishioners and details upcoming events, both with articles and photographs.  The newsletter also features articles from parishioners, staff members, and Pastor, to keep the parish updated and informed on topics significant to the parish community.

Card Ministry                                                                                                                    Volunteers send cards to the sick of the parish and to those who have experienced a death of a loved one.

Twinning Committee                                                                                                        This committee maintains an ongoing relationship with St. Joan of Arc Parish in Plymouth, N.C.  We offer physical, spiritual, and financial support to the parish and in turn are enriched as a parish community by their particular gifts.

Web Communications                                                                                                           In an effort to connect with parishioners beyond the church walls we have established a web site as a means of evangelization and be able to share information and educational links to the larger Church.

Away From Home Care Packages                                                                                    This group of parishioners writes notes and collects food donations and money to cover the postage to send the packages to parishioners away at college or in a branch of military service.  Packages are sent two times a year.

Divorce and Beyond                                                                                                             This is a peer ministry group that meets for eight weeks to discuss the stages of healing needed to get through the divorce experience.  This is sponsored by our parish and is open to anyone who is experiencing the pain of divorce.
