Adults who wish to join the Catholic Church, be baptized, make their First Communion, or receive the Sacrament of Confirmation may do so by participating in Gesu's Order of Christian Initiation for Adults, also called the OCIA program.
If you are a Marquette University student, OCIA is available through Campus Ministry. Please visit this page for more information from Campus Ministry.
This program of study and prayer is right 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;
who received First Communion in a Catholic church but was never confirmed.
For information about the parish OCIA program, please fill out the 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.
