The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) is a welcoming process for adults who want to explore the Catholic faith and discern whether they would like to become members of the Church. Through OCIA, participants receive instruction in the teachings, beliefs, customs, and practices of the Catholic faith while having the opportunity to ask questions, grow in understanding, and journey with others. Those who complete the process receive the sacraments—usually Baptism, First Communion, and Confirmation, or a combination of these—at Easter. ANY PARISHIONERS are also welcome to attend the sessions.
