Adult Faith Formation (OCIA)

OCIA

 ORDER OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS

Are You Being Called to the Catholic Faith?

The journey of faith is a personal and profound experience, and for those seeking to become Catholic or complete their Sacraments, the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) offers a welcoming pathway to deepen your relationship with Christ and His Church.

At Holy Name of Jesus Parish, we invite adults who are:

• Unbaptized and seeking to become Catholic
• Baptized in another Christian tradition and desiring full communion with the Catholic Church
• Baptized Catholic but have not yet received First Eucharist or Confirmation
• Catholics who have been away and feel called to reconnect with their faith

OCIA is more than a class—it’s a journey of discovery, formation, and community. Through prayer, scripture, discussion, and reflection, you will explore the richness of the Catholic faith in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Come and See

Taking the first step can feel like a big decision, but we encourage you to “come and see” (John 1:39). Join us for an initial session, ask questions, and see if OCIA is the right fit for your spiritual journey. There’s no commitment—just an open invitation to explore what God may be calling you to.

We look forward to walking this journey of faith with you!
