Becoming Catholic

Curious About the Catholic Faith?

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering about Catholicism, whether as a new seeker or someone looking to reconnect, you’re not alone. Many ask, “Why the Catholic Church? Aren’t all Christian denominations essentially the same?” It’s a thoughtful question, and the answer begins with Jesus Himself. He founded one Church, rooted in unity, guided by the Holy Spirit, and passed down through the Apostles. That legacy continues today in the Catholic Church.

Jesus prayed that His followers would be one, united in faith and love, just as He is one with the Father. This unity is meant to be a sign to the world and it's a powerful invitation to experience the Church He established.

A Journey of Discovery

If you’re exploring this path, the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) offers a welcoming space to learn, reflect, and ask questions. It’s not just about understanding teachings, it’s about discovering a deeper relationship with God through the Church and its sacraments. Prayer, conversation, and community make this journey meaningful.

Even if you’re a baptized Catholic who hasn’t yet received Confirmation or Holy Communion, OCIA is the perfect next step.

Join Us This Fall

We meet on Sundays after the 10 AM Mass, starting in September, in the Convent Living Room. Whether you’re ready to sign up or want to chat, I’d love to connect.
