Becoming Catholic / OCIA

 

Becoming Catholic (OCIA)

 

The Order of Initiation of Christian Adults (O.C.I.A.), is a program established for those adults and youth interested in conversion to the Catholic faith tradition. “The Baptismal Catechumenate is both “a process of formation and a true school of the faith.” It is a fruitful blend of instruction and formation in the faith; it progresses through gradual stages; it unfolds the Church’s rites, symbols, and biblical and liturgical signs; and it incorporates the Catechumens into the Christian community of faith and worship.” (NDC p 116 #35 D)

Are you interested in becoming Catholic?

 

OCIA is an opportunity for those seeking full communion with the Catholic Church. The classes are specifically for:

  • Those who have never been baptized and wish to receive the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, First Communion, and Confirmation);
  • Those baptized in another Christian tradition who now wish to be received into full communion with the Catholic Church;
  • Baptized Catholics who have not yet received the Sacraments of First Communion and/or Confirmation.
  • Anyone who would like to learn more about the Catholic faith.
