Becoming a Catholic!

Interested in Becoming Catholic? Join Us!

Are you or someone you know…

• Interested in becoming Catholic?
• Have a child over the age of seven who has not been baptized?
• Baptized Catholic but have not yet received Confirmation or First Eucharist?
• Baptized in another Christian tradition and desire to become Catholic?
• Baptized Catholic but would like to grow in understanding of the faith?

We invite you to explore the Catholic faith through our informal inquiry meetings and the O.C.I.A. (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults) process. In a warm, welcoming setting, you will have the opportunity to ask questions, share your story, and learn more about the teachings of the Church. Sessions are available for adults, youth, and children, and are offered in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.

These gatherings provide an opportunity to journey with others, deepen your relationship with Jesus and His Church, and grow in your understanding of the Catholic faith.
