BECOMING OR BEING CATHOLIC - an invitation to "Come and See"
OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults) is a faith journey open to all unbaptized or baptized Christians who wish to explore more about the Catholic faith and the possibility of becoming Catholic. Current Catholics who may be looking for a refresher about their faith may also attend the Inquiry classes in the Fall of 2024.
A "Come and See" session with Fr. Greg Daigle will be held on Tuesday evening, August 20, from 6:30-7:30pm in the Parish Hall. Please call the church office at 687-2402 to register as well as encourage others to call who may be inquiring about the Catholic faith.
OCIA inquiry classes about our Catholic faith continue every Sunday from 9:30am-10:45am in the church office conference room starting on Sunday, September 8, 2024, through December 8, 2024. After the Christmas Season, OCIA catechumenate classes will resume until Easter Vigil Mass with some of the classes being held after 4:00pm Mass on Saturday for topics like a tour of the church, church history and Holy Orders by outside speakers.
Schedule of topics will be included in upcoming bulletins. For more information, please call 687-2402.
