OCIA: Order of Christian Initiation of Adults<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) is a process of initiation into the Roman Catholic Community of Faith. This is for persons who are seeking baptism in the Catholic Church. It is also for those already baptized in another Christian Tradition who are seeking full communion with the Catholic Church through the Profession of Faith. Preparation for the reception of the sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist are included.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the support and involvement of the parish community, this interactive opportunity includes the study of the Gospels, Catholic teachings, Christian values, and the development and deepening of a life of prayer and action.<\/span><\/p>\n

Curious about the Catholic Faith?<\/span><\/p>\n

Please contact Carmella Barger @ 425-478-4269 or<\/span> adultfaith@hccclakestevens.org<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
