Not Catholic? Welcome to your new home!

Baptized adults and children over 7 are received into the Church after a period of instruction and a profession of faith.

Unbaptized adults and children over 7 are received into the Church at the Easter Vigil Mass.

• Adults and children over 7, who have not been baptized, receive Baptism in conjunction with Eucharist and Confirmation.

The process by which people are initiated into the Catholic faith is called the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA).
