Every year adults and older children/youth are welcomed into the Catholic Community at the Easter Vigil after participating in a formation process called the OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults).
We have now created a program for the whole family to assist children ages 7-17 receive all the sacraments of initiation. In this journey of faith, you will deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ through prayer, reflecting on scripture, and participating in the worship life of the church.
The OCIA adapted for children program is a process of faith formation for people who have never been baptized, or who were baptized in another Christian faith who are interested in becoming members of the Catholic Church. The process, done in a family friendly environment, is facilitated by a team of parishioners and staff. Some of our team members became Catholics through this process, while others are “life-long Catholics".
Children will also be involved in the elementary School of Religion http://vbspro.events/p/iccsor or our Middle or High School Youth Groups.
