BECOME CATHOLIC!

OCIA Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (formerly known as RCIA Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) is the process by which adults become Catholic.

If you or anyone you know is not a fully initiated Catholic and wishes to learn more about the Catholic Faith, OCIA is what you are looking for. In the OCIA process, we learn about the basic teachings of the Catholic Faith.

This process is designed to lead to initiation into the Catholic Church through the sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and/or Confirmation. In coming to the OCIA sessions, though, there is no obligation to join the Church.

OCIA Classes. NEW sessions will start in September 2025.

Adults: English sessions take place from 6:30-8:30 p.m. on Mondays in the Cafeteria.

Sessions in Spanish are held on Wednesdays from 6:30-8 pm in the Compound building room 101.

Children/Teens (7 years old – 17 years old): The youth and teen process runs concurrently with the adult process. Family sessions are held on Sunday mornings from 9:30-10:45 am and conclude with 11 am Mass.
