The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) is the process by which an adult or teen is initiated into the Catholic Church. It is the path by which the unbaptized receive baptism, Confirmation, and First Communion. It is also the path which which  the baptized (Catholic or non-Catholic) receive Confirmation and First Communion, and non-Catholics to convert to the Catholic Faith. 
If you are interested in beginning this process, the first step is to meet with a member of our OCIA team. This meeting is an opportunity answer some of your basic questions about the faith, and how to join the Church. There may be a few meetings before you decide that you are ready to take the next step. No high pressure sale pitch. You can reach our team by calling our OCIA direct line at 508-445-3320. You can also email us at OCIA@cntaunton.org. We look forward to hearing from you.
