How Does Someone Become Catholic?
The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) is the process of learning about and becoming part of the Catholic Church. The OCIA is a period of preparation extending over the course of a year or more. The OCIA process is appropriate for adults who have not yet been baptized, for those who were baptized in another faith tradition, and for those who were baptized Catholic but not raised within the Catholic faith. OCIA meets weekly throughout the year at Holy Cross Parish.
