The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (O.C.I.A.) is the path to full communion into the Catholic Church for both baptized Christians and those from other, or no, faith traditions. You are also welcome to call the Parish Office at any time to make an appointment to talk to someone. We look forward to welcoming you into the eternal truths of the Catholic faith!
