Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA)

The OCIA at Ascension is a faith-sharing group accompanying adults in their preparation for the reception of Baptism, Eucharist and Confirmation.  This process includes interactive discussions about the different aspects of the Catholic faith.  If you are considering becoming a Catholic or are already baptized and would like to receive the sacraments of 1st Communion and/or Confirmation, the OCIA is the right place for you.  Sacraments can be received at the Easter Vigil. The OCIA also welcomes all Catholics who received the Sacraments, and seek to revive their faith and share their views of the Catholic Church.  For more information about OCIA , please e-mail the OCIA team at:
