ADULT PROGRAMS

1. For Adult Catholics (18+) who were Baptized and received First Communion, but not yet Confirmed: We welcome you to begin the process toward the Sacrament of Confirmation. Preparation style will be based on your personal journey of faith and life situation.

2. For (a) Adult Catholics who were Baptized but have not yet received any other Sacraments; or (b) for individuals (over age 7) who have never been baptized; or (c) for individuals who have been baptized in other faith traditions and seek communion with the Catholic Church: We welcome you to The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA), a process of learning, discernment, and building a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. The first stage is Inquiry - to seek and ask questions with no strings attached. Candidates who continue through the multi-stage process typically receive their Sacraments at the Easter Vigil Mass.
