Are you someone who was baptized as a Catholic but never received the Sacraments of First Communion and/or Confirmation?
Are you someone who was baptized in a non-Catholic Christian faith and you are now interested in converting to the Catholic faith?
Are you someone who was never baptized in any Christian faith and now you would like to be a full member of the Catholic Church?
Are you someone who has a family member or a friend who is a Catholic and you are interested in becoming a Catholic yourself?
If you are an adult (18 years old or older) and you answered “yes” to any one of these questions, then the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults is for you. The OCIA is a faith journey in which you deepen your relationship with God and make friendships with other candidates and team members through Bible study, faith sharing and learning about the teachings of the Catholic Church. Adults are then fully initiated into the Catholic Church through the Sacraments of Baptism, First Communion and Confirmation at the Easter Vigil.
The OCIA for 2026-2027 will begin in September and registration is required. If you are interested in participating in the OCIA for 2026-2027, beginning in September, please call the rectory office at 302-328-3431.
