Adults who wish to join the Catholic Church can do so by participating in the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults, also called the OCIA program. At Gesù, the OCIA program begins in mid-September and ends in late April or early May, depending on the date of Easter.
OCIA is the right program for anyone:
who has never been baptized
who has been baptized in another Christian tradition but would like to be received into the Catholic Church
who was baptized Catholic but who never made a First Communion or received the Sacrament of Confirmation in the church.
For information about the parish OCIA program, you can fill out inquiry form below.
If you'd prefer to fill out a paper form, one is available here. It can be dropped off or mailed to the parish office or placed in the collection basket at Mass.
