Order of Christian Initiation of Adults
Are you an adult or teen who would like to be baptized?
Are you a baptized adult who missed confirmation as a teen?
Maybe you are married to a Catholic, or raising your children as Catholics, and each time you come to church with them, you want to receive communion too!
Perhaps something else was happening in your family when you were a teenager, and you never made confirmation! Maybe, your parents held off on baptizing you as a child, so that you could choose your own faith tradition as an adult-- and now, you'd like to join our Church. In any of these circumstances, you are not alone!
Every year, there are many adults just like you who join the Church at Easter, through the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) By this time, next year, you could be a fully initiated member of our faith community.
The experience begins in Early November.
Please call the office or email us now for more information: [email protected]
