Welcome
“It is good that you are here.” St. Peter said these words to Jesus in the Gospel of St. Matthew, and we say them to you now. It is good that you are here. Whatever you are looking for, whatever your heart longs for, the Catholic Church is here to help you live life to the fullest.OCIA Registration Paperwork

“There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.”— Venerable Fulton Sheen

The OCIA Journey
OCIA offers seekers from every background an opportunity to encounter God through the Catholic faith. As you progress along this journey of spiritual discovery, you will meet parishioners who will help you uncover the truths of Christianity and explore the depths of the Catholic Tradition. The journey is divided into four phases, marked by rites celebrated with the Church community as it accompanies those preparing to receive the Sacraments of Initiation.
There is no better way to understand the Catholic faith from the inside than to journey with us through OCIA. If you have ever had a question about the sacraments, liturgy, morality, Mary, the saints, prayer, Scripture, or Catholic teaching, this is a place where you can seek answers. Whether you are ready to become Catholic or simply desire to learn more about God and your Catholic neighbors, you are welcome to journey with us.
