Order of Christian Initiation
for Adults
What is OCIA?
The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA, formerly RCIA) is the process by which the Church guides and welcomes people who want to know more and are considering becoming Catholic. It is a process of prayer, learning, and community to support conversion to Jesus within His Church.
