OCIA

Have you ever wondered why Catholics do what they do?  Do you have a Catholic spouse and would like to see what you need to do to celebrate the sacraments along with them?  Maybe you know a Catholic co-worker, friend or family member that always seems to be filled with hope and joy, even when things may not be going their way.  Do you feel some inner urgings, calling you to seek something you sense is missing? 

If the answer is yes to any of these questions, the Holy Spirit may be calling you to a deeper level of companionship with Jesus and we are here to journey with you.

The Catholic Church has a process, called the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (O. C. I. A.), whereby one can ask their questions, learn about the Catholic faith, and journey with others with similar questions.  The process is fit to the individual’s need and it is up to you if you would like to continue to more in-depth study about Jesus.  It can start anytime you are ready and often culminates in receiving the sacraments at the Easter Vigil, though it can vary.

Weekly sessions depend on the schedule of the participants.

If you would like to find out more about this process, or have questions, 517-467-2106 or sjsadultedrcia@gmail.com.
