Have you ever felt God calling you to learn more about the Catholic faith?
Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time, considering becoming Catholic, returning to the Church after time away, or seeking to complete your Sacraments, we warmly invite you to join us for the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) at St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish.
OCIA is a journey of faith and discovery that offers adults an opportunity to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ while learning about the beliefs, traditions, and sacramental life of the Catholic Church. Through prayer, Scripture, discussion, and fellowship, participants are guided in a welcoming and supportive environment as they discern God's call in their lives.
OCIA is for:
• Adults who have never been baptized
• Christians of other faith traditions who are interested in becoming Catholic
• Baptized Catholics who have not yet received the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist and/or Confirmation
• Anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Catholic faith
Our OCIA sessions begin in September and continue throughout the year, culminating in the celebration of the Sacraments of Initiation for those who are called to receive them.
No matter where you are on your faith journey, you are welcome here!
For more information or to register, please contact Fr. McLafferty or Deacon Anthony at 845-227-1710.
We would be honored to accompany you as you take this next step in your journey of faith.
