Interested in becoming Catholic/getting Confirmed? The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) is the process by which adults who are inquiring about the Catholic faith can receive formation and preparation to receive baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist. This is for those with no religious background, adult baptized Catholics who haven't been confirmed, or Christians raised in a different tradition who want to become Catholic. There will be weekly classes culminating in the celebration of the sacraments at the Easter Vigil. For more information or to sign up please contact Fr. Dan. fr.dan@newmanec.com
