Welcome to OCIA!
-
If you are an adult who is interested in learning more about the Catholic faith, wishes to unite with the Catholic Church, or is a Catholic needing to complete your Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist), please register for OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults-formerly RCIA, The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) below. Also, please be sure to schedule a time to meet with our OCIA Coordinator - Patrick Steil - so we can learn more about your needs and answer any questions you may have.
OCIA Classes are normally started in the Fall. We are gauging interest for an early 2025 class as well. If you are interested, please register below. -
