Becoming a Catholic

Becoming a Catholic

Here are some ideas for finding out more about being a Catholic:

  • Talk to someone who is a Catholic and ask them about their faith and its importance in their lives.
  • Contact the Faith Formation Office.

If you want to take the next step on this journey:

  • Contact Fr. Rob or Melissa to make an appointment.
  • The process by which new members are brought into the Catholic Church is called the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults, or the OCIA. It is best described as a journey of faith that passes through a number of different phases.
  • The OCIA journey provides the opportunity for you to discover more about the Catholic Faith and to discern whether you want to become a Catholic by being baptized or in the case of other baptized Christians by being received into the Catholic Church.
