OCIA

Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA)
OCIA is open to adults of all ages who are interested in learning more about the Catholic Church. This invitation is for:  

• Those not baptized wishing to enter the Catholic church

• Those who are baptized in a Christian faith desiring to become Catholic

• Those baptized Catholic but have not received First Communion or Confirmation

Registration begins in the summer. Classes begin at the end of September and continue through Easter.

Welcome Home Catholics
If you are returning to the Catholic Church after some period of absence and want to find out more about the Church as it is today, you are invited and welcome to attend OCIA!


Adult Confirmation Preparation
Baptized Catholics who are seeking to be confirmed (and have already received First Communion) are invited to attend OCIA from September through the end of January. Individuals will be Confirmed alongside our youth at our annual Confirmation Mass, which typically occurs on a Saturday morning a week or two before Lent begins.
