OCIA

Your Journey to the Catholic Faith begins here!


OCIA

OCIA, the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults, is the process through which non-Catholic adults become full members of the Roman Catholic Church. It involves a spiritual journey of conversion and learning that culminates in the reception of the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist. The process typically lasts for about a year and is broken down into different stages, including the period of inquiry and catechesis, leading up to the reception of the sacraments, which occurs at the Easter Vigil. 


When do the programs begin?

OCIA classes begin each year in September.
