Faith Formation

Order of Christian Initiation of Adults

OCIA is the process of introducing interested persons gradually into the Catholic Church. In the Christian Initiation of Adults we are concerned with the total formation of the person into believing, living, praying and serving with the Church community. This happens gradually through the periods of Inquiry, Catechumenate, Enlightenment with Initiation at the Easter Vigil and Mystagogy. This year long process is faith formation into a community of believers in Jesus Christ along with doctrinal formation. Team members, sponsors, and ministers of hospitality are of vital importance.
