ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY CATHOLIC CHURCH

OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults)


Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA, formerly RCIA) is a two-year program that takes place on Tuesdays at 7 PM in the parish library, from September to May. It is for non-Catholic adults who are interested in Catholicism, and for baptized Catholic adults who have not been confirmed. If you would like to take part in OCIA, pick up an application at the parish office, or call, and the secretary will send one to you via email. Starting in about July of every year, a current application for OCIA will be posted here on the Assumption website at Parish Info: Forms. You may download a copy and email it to the office or bring it in.
