Become a Catholic

Are you interested in becoming a Catholic? Do you want to receive the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist and Confirmation? Do you simply want to learn more about the Catholic faith?

The order of Christian Initiation for Adults is the Church’s ritual process for calling adults to a conversion of mind and heart and preparing them for a full and active life in the Church as disciples of Jesus. In this process, OCIA hopes to engage each participant where he or she is at in his or her faith journey and to provide an encounter with the teachings of the church.

We welcome anyone who is considering becoming Catholic, no matter matter where you are on your faith journey. We understand that some have been pondering this question for years and have reached the point where they are ready to commit, while others are still in the curiosity phase and seek more information as they try to make an informed decision about full membership in the Catholic Church.

Wherever you find yourself, please feel free to contact:
