Becoming Catholic (OCIA)

Have you been thinking about or have questions about becoming a Catholic?

Would you like to invite a friend or relative to consider becoming a Catholic?

Do you want to know more about your faith?

Becoming Catholic is our program for preparing and welcoming non-Catholics into the Church, and a great opportunity for Catholics to learn more about their faith at an adult level.

Becoming Catholic is for any adult who is not baptized, any adult who was baptized in another Christian faith tradition, or any baptized Catholic who has not received their First Communion, First Penance, and Confirmation.

If you are interested in the Becoming Catholic program, please click the interest form button to the right or email Chris (cmueller@holyfamilyjax.com).

For Children 7 to 16 years old who need to be baptized, the OCIA process adapted to meet the special needs of children and youth is a two year process. For more information, please contact Chris (cmueller@holyfamilyjax.com).
